I am using VS2008,ASP.net,C#.net,NPOI 1.2.3 dll.

I have a web applicaion which uses NPOI dll to export to excel 2003. How do I display a number with thousand separator in Indian style( 12, 12,34,567.89)in the exported excel sheet using program? The built in formula sum() should be applied on these exported cells with number format.

thanks in advance

The code is mentioned below.

protected void btnGenerateReport_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { // Get the data to report on //var userAccounts = Membership.GetAllUsers();

// Create a new workbook and a sheet named "User Accounts"
HSSFWorkbook workbook = new HSSFWorkbook();
Sheet sheet = workbook.CreateSheet("User Accounts");
//var sheet = workbook.CreateSheet("User Accounts");

// Add header labels
int rowIndex = 0;
Row row = sheet.CreateRow(rowIndex);
row.CreateCell(0).SetCellValue("Username");
row.CreateCell(1).SetCellValue("Email");
row.CreateCell(2).SetCellValue("Joined");
