Question

Hope you can help.

I’m looking for a way to build an excel sheet range by just passing in some parameters. My method is as follows:

private void TableCellformatting(int rowStart, int rowEnd, char colStart, char colEnd)
    {
        char temp;
        StringBuilder s = new StringBuilder();
        excelSheetRange = null;
        for (int i = rowStart; i <= rowEnd; i++)
        {
            temp = colStart;
            while (temp <= colEnd)
            {
                if (s.Length > 0)
                    s.Append(", ");
                s.Append(string.Format("{0}{1}", temp.ToString(), i));
                temp++;
            }
        }
        excelSheetRange = excelSheet.get_Range(s.ToString());
        excelSheetRange.HorizontalAlignment = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.XlHAlign.xlHAlignCenter;
    }

This runs ok until the excelSheet.get_Range part is called. When I pass in the cell numbers manually, I have to do it like this:

get_Range("A1", "A2" etc...)

Any ideas if this is even possible, or if there is another way?

Thanks!

Use worksheet.range property.

excelSheetRange = excelSheet.Range[excelsheet.Cells[rowstart, colstart], excelsheet.Cells[rowend, colend]];
