Excel grouping
GemBox.Spreadsheet supports grouping of rows and columns.
In the following example grouping is set both on rows and columns, where rows are expanded and columns are collapsed.
using GemBox.Spreadsheet;
class Program
{
static void Main()
{
// If using Professional version, put your serial key below.
SpreadsheetInfo.SetLicense("FREE-LIMITED-KEY");
var workbook = new ExcelFile();
var worksheet = workbook.Worksheets.Add("Grouping");
worksheet.Cells[0].Value = "Cell grouping examples:";
// Vertical grouping.
worksheet.Cells[2, 0].Value = "GroupA Start";
worksheet.Rows[2].OutlineLevel = 1;
worksheet.Cells[3, 0].Value = "A";
worksheet.Rows[3].OutlineLevel = 1;
worksheet.Cells[4, 1].Value = "GroupB Start";
worksheet.Rows[4].OutlineLevel = 2;
worksheet.Cells[5, 1].Value = "B";
worksheet.Rows[5].OutlineLevel = 2;
worksheet.Cells[6, 1].Value = "GroupB End";
worksheet.Rows[6].OutlineLevel = 2;
worksheet.Cells[7, 0].Value = "GroupA End";
worksheet.Rows[7].OutlineLevel = 1;
// Put outline row buttons above groups.
worksheet.ViewOptions.OutlineRowButtonsBelow = false;
// Horizontal grouping (collapsed).
worksheet.Cells["E2"].Value = "Gr.C Start";
worksheet.Columns["E"].OutlineLevel = 1;
worksheet.Columns["E"].Hidden = true;
worksheet.Cells["F2"].Value = "C";
worksheet.Columns["F"].OutlineLevel = 1;
worksheet.Columns["F"].Hidden = true;
worksheet.Cells["G2"].Value = "Gr.C End";
worksheet.Columns["G"].OutlineLevel = 1;
worksheet.Columns["G"].Hidden = true;
worksheet.Columns["H"].Collapsed = true;
workbook.Save("Grouping.%OutputFileType%");
