Question

I am trying to get the last row of an excel sheet programatically using the Microsoft.interop.Excel Library and C#. I want to do that, because I am charged with looping through all the records of an excel spreadsheet and performing some kind of operation on them. Specifically, I need the actual number of the last row, as I will throw this number into a function. Anybody have any idea how to do that?

Couple ways,

using Excel = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel;

Excel.ApplicationClass excel = new Excel.ApplicationClass();
Excel.Application app = excel.Application;
Excel.Range all = app.get_Range("A1:H10", Type.Missing);

OR

Excel.Range last = sheet.Cells.SpecialCells(Excel.XlCellType.xlCellTypeLastCell, Type.Missing);
Excel.Range range = sheet.get_Range("A1", last);

int lastUsedRow = last.Row;
int lastUsedColumn = last.Column;
