    <p>I am trying to export C# DataTable to EXCEL file on the fly (without creating physical file) using Microsoft Office EXCEL INTEROP and download it through asp.net webpage through Response object. I am able to generate memorystream using the library But somehow the file is not getting saved through the memory stream. Reference code is given below. You will be required to take reference for DocumentFormat.OpenXml.dll &amp; WindowsBase.DLL (that you can download from microsoft site).</p> <p>Any Idea how to resolve the problem ? ? ?</p> <pre><code>Private void DownloadFile() { DataSet objTable = ReadTableFromViewstate(); if (objTable != null &amp;&amp; objTable.Rows.Count &gt; 0) { string strDownloadableFilename = "TestExcelFileName.xls"; MemoryStream fs1 = new MemoryStream(); if (CreateExcelFile.CreateExcelDocument(objTable, fs1)) { Response.Clear(); byte[] data1 = new byte[fs1.Length]; fs1.Read(data1, 0, data1.Length); fs1.Close(); Response.ContentType = "application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.spreadsheetml.sheet"; Response.AddHeader("Content-Disposition", string.Format("attachment; filename={0}", strDownloadableFilename)); Response.BinaryWrite(data1); ; Response.End(); } else { LblErrorMessage.Text = "Error Exporting File."; } } } </code></pre> <p>..</p> <pre><code>public static bool CreateExcelDocument(DataSet ds, System.IO.Stream excelFileStream) { try { using (SpreadsheetDocument document = SpreadsheetDocument.Create(excelFileStream, SpreadsheetDocumentType.Workbook)) { CreateParts(ds, document); } Trace.WriteLine("Successfully created: " + excelFileStream); return true; } catch (Exception ex) { Trace.WriteLine("Failed, exception thrown: " + ex.Message); return false; } } .. private static void CreateParts(DataSet ds, SpreadsheetDocument document) { WorkbookPart workbookPart = document.AddWorkbookPart(); Workbook workbook = new Workbook(); workbookPart.Workbook = workbook; // If we don't add a "WorkbookStylesPart", OLEDB will refuse to connect to this .xlsx file ! WorkbookStylesPart workbookStylesPart = workbookPart.AddNewPart&lt;WorkbookStylesPart&gt;("rIdStyles"); Stylesheet stylesheet = new Stylesheet(); workbookStylesPart.Stylesheet = stylesheet; Sheets sheets = new Sheets(); // Loop through each of the DataTables in our DataSet, and create a new Excel Worksheet for each. uint worksheetNumber = 1; foreach (DataTable dt in ds.Tables) { // For each worksheet you want to create string workSheetID = "rId" + worksheetNumber.ToString(); string worksheetName = dt.TableName; WorksheetPart worksheetPart = workbookPart.AddNewPart&lt;WorksheetPart&gt;(workSheetID); WriteDataTableToExcelWorksheet(dt, worksheetPart); Sheet sheet = new Sheet() { Name = worksheetName, SheetId = (UInt32Value)worksheetNumber, Id = workSheetID }; sheets.Append(sheet); worksheetNumber++; } workbook.Append(sheets); } </code></pre>

    2. CONot really an answer, but i can recommend [EPPLus](http://epplus.codeplex.com/releases/view/42439) to create Excel files on the fly. http://stackoverflow.com/a/10547727/284240 Then all you need is `Response.BinaryWrite(pck.GetAsByteArray());`

    3. CO@James: Thanks for the suggestion. But i don't want to go that way, otherwise i could have been generate .csv file. I want to use INTEROP because in future, i want to add Images/Graphs to the excel sheet (that too on the fly).

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
