Summary

This article demonstrates how to create an Automation client for Microsoft Excel by using Microsoft Visual C# .NET.

More Information

Automation is a process that permits applications that are written in languages such as Visual C# .NET to programmatically control other applications. Automation to Excel permits you to perform actions such as creating a new workbook, adding data to the workbook, or creating charts. With Excel and other Microsoft Office applications, virtually all of the actions that you can perform manually through the user interface can also be performed programmatically by using Automation.

Excel exposes this programmatic functionality through an object model. The object model is a collection of classes and methods that serve as counterparts to the logical components of Excel. For example, there is an Application object, a Workbook object, and a Worksheet object, each of which contain the functionality of those pieces of Excel. To access the object model from Visual C# .NET, you can set a project reference to the type library.

This article demonstrates how to set the proper project reference to the Excel type library for Visual C# .NET and provides sample code to automate Excel.
