Try this:

C#

Response.Clear();
Response.AddHeader("content-disposition", "attachment;filename=filename.xls");
Response.Charset = "";
Response.Cache.SetCacheability(HttpCacheability.NoCache);
Response.ContentType = "application/vnd.ms-excel";
System.IO.StringWriter stringWrite = new System.IO.StringWriter();
HtmlTextWriter htmlWrite = new HtmlTextWriter(stringWrite);
DataGrid.RenderControl(htmlWrite);
Response.Write(stringWrite.ToString());
string tag = "<img src="imagepath & filename" />";
Response.Write(tag);
Response.End();

And also Google can give you lots of tips if you'll try that Export image To Excel in Asp.net[^].
