You could start with http://blogs.lessthandot.com/index.php/WebDev/ServerProgramming/ASPNET/export-table-to-excel-with-grid-lines[^].

Generating Excel (XML Spreadsheet) in C#[^] could give you some idea as well.

Reading HTML Tables with the JET HTML Import Installable ISAM Driver[^] might help you too.

As for html to excel with formatting issue, you can see below code:

C#

Response.Clear();
Response.Buffer = true;
Response.AppendHeader("Content-Disposition","attachment;filename="+DateTime.
Now.ToString("yyyyMMdd")+".xls");
Response.ContentEncoding = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8;
Response.ContentType = ""application/ms-excel";;
this.EnableViewState = false;

The "ContentType" property which the default set is text/HTML can help us a lot. And hypertext will be exported to client. If we change it to ms-excel, it will be exported as Excel format and your browser will remind you to download and store it. The property of "ContentType" includes image/JPEG, text/HTML, image/GIF and vnd.ms-excel/msword.

Solution 2

What formatting ? Excel will open a CSV, so just emit your data as a CSV to create an Excel compatible download.

For instance, the content in html table (td) is (15,345). When this is exported to excel, it will be changed to -15,345. Thats why I am looking for the tool to export to excel with formatting.

So you put (15,345) in the column of your CSV
