import excel sheet to SQL server database table using c# asp.net


The Page having a FileUpload control and the Upload button, on selecting the Excel file user needs to click on Upload button to store the data to Server. Here we are treating the uploaded file as database hence we need to create OLEDB connection to this file, from this connection will be created and the data is fetched to C# as DataTable. '[Sheet1$]' is the Name of the Worksheet where requires data is present.:
           
string SourceConstr = @"Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source='" +  + "';Extended Properties= 'Excel 8.0;HDR=Yes;IMEX=1'";
OleDbConnection con = new OleDbConnection(SourceConstr);
string query = "Select * from [Sheet1$]";
OleDbDataAdapter data = new OleDbDataAdapter(query, con);
data.Fill(dtExcel);
From this code connection will be created for the Excel file and the data in Sheet1 will be dumped to the dtExcel of type DataTable.
Note:'$' must be there after the worksheet name.

Whole code for the same is here.
 


fileName = FileUpload1.ResolveClientUrl(FileUpload1.PostedFile.FileName);
int count = 0;
DataClassesDataContext conLinq = new DataClassesDataContext("Data Source=server name;Initial Catalog=Database Name;Integrated Security=true");
try
{
   DataTable dtExcel = new DataTable();
   string SourceConstr = @"Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source='" + fileName + "';Extended Properties= 'Excel 8.0;HDR=Yes;IMEX=1'";
   OleDbConnection con = new OleDbConnection(SourceConstr);
   string query = "Select * from [Sheet1$]";
   OleDbDataAdapter data = new OleDbDataAdapter(query, con);
   data.Fill(dtExcel);
   for (int i = 0; i < dtExcel.Rows.Count; i++)
   {
      try
      {
         count += conLinq.ExecuteCommand("insert into table name values(" + dtExcel.Rows[i][0] + "," + dtExcel.Rows[i][1] + ",'" + dtExcel.Rows[i][2] + "',"+dtExcel.Rows[i][3]+")");
      }
      catch (Exception ex)
      {
         continue;
      }
   }
   if (count == dtExcel.Rows.Count)
   {
      <--Success Message-->
   }
   else
   {
      <--Failure Message-->
   }
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
   throw ex;
}
finally
{
   conLinq.Dispose();
}

ASP.NET Web API is a framework provided by the Microsoft with which we can easily build HTTP services that can reach a broad of clients, including browsers, mobile, IoT devices, etc. ASP.NET Web API provides an ideal platform for building RESTful applications on the .NET Framework.   Difference between ASP.NET Web API and WCF Web AP I is a Framework to build HTTP Services that can reach a board of clients, including browsers, mobile, IoT Devices, etc. and provided an ideal platform for building RESTful applications. It is limited to HTTP based services. ASP.NET framework ships out with the .NET framework and is Open Source. WCF i.e. Windows Communication Foundation is a framework used for building Service Oriented applications (SOA) and supports multiple transport protocol like HTTP, TCP, MSMQ, etc. It supports multiple protocols like HTTP, TCP, Named Pipes, MSMQ, etc. WCF ships out with the .NET Framework. Both Web API and WCF can be self-hosted or can be...
