Hi Team,

I have to read data from a excel file which has multiple columns... and from that excel i have to extract data of one column(application name) and have to find the count of application name( eg: A-5 , B-6). A application has appeared 5times in an excel, B application has appeared 6 times in excel.

This has to be displayed in tabular form in the body of email generated after it reads the excel.

Like:
-----------------
|Application|Count|
-----------------
|A | 5 |
-----------------
|B | 6 |
------------------

something similar to above.

Please help me.. as i am new to C# and have only basic idea.

Thanks in advance.

As you can see from looking at your question, text formatting is likely to screw up any attempt to do this in a plain text email. (Most email clients don't use a fixed pitch font and, in plain text emails, you can't specify markup to change that.)

So you have two options:

Use HTML mail, and construct a genuine table (with <table><tr><td> etc)
Change your format so that it works well in a plain text message, perhaps "A:(tab)5 occurrences(newline)B:(tab)6 occurrences".
