Sometimes, we need to copy the data with formatting from one cell range (a row or a column) to another. It is an extremely easy work in MS Excel, because we can select the source range and then use Copy and Paste function to insert the same data in destination cells.
In fact, Spire.XLS has provided two methods Worksheet.Copy(CellRange sourceRange, CellRange destRange, bool copyStyle) and Worksheet.Copy(CellRange sourceRange, Worksheet worksheet, int destRow, int destColumn, bool copyStyle) that allow programmers to copy rows and columns within or between workbooks. This article will present how to duplicate a row within a workbook using Spire.XLS.
Test File:
Code Snippet:
Step 1: Create a new instance of Workbook class and load the sample file.
Workbook book = new Workbook();
book.LoadFromFile("sample.xlsx", ExcelVersion.Version2010);
Step 2: Get the first worksheet.
Worksheet sheet = book.Worksheets[0];
Step 3: Call Worksheet.Copy(CellRange sourceRange, CellRange destRange, bool copyStyle) method to copy data from source range (A1:G1) to destination range (A4:G4) and maintain the formatting.
sheet.Copy(sheet.Range["A1:G1"], sheet.Range["A4:G4"],true);
Step 4: Save and launch the file.
book.SaveToFile("result.xlsx", ExcelVersion.Version2010);
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("result.xlsx");
Output:
Full Code:
using Spire.Xls;
namespace DuplicateRowExcel
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
Workbook book = new Workbook();
book.LoadFromFile("sample.xlsx", ExcelVersion.Version2010);
Worksheet sheet = book.Worksheets[0];
sheet.Copy(sheet.Range["A1:G1"], sheet.Range["A4:G4"], true);
book.SaveToFile("result.xlsx", ExcelVersion.Version2010);
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("result.xlsx");
}
}
}
