Try using this:
for (int j = row.FirstCellNum; j < row.LastCellNum; j++)
and
for (int i = row.FirstCellNum; i < row.LastCellNum; i++)
Instead of:
for (int j = 0; j < row.LastCellNum; j++)
and
for (int i = 0; i < row.LastCellNum; i++)
Also, make sure that you manage the case when the cells on the first row are null
:
if (dt.Columns.Count == 0)
{
int empty = 0;
for (int j = row.FirstCellNum; j < row.LastCellNum; j++)
{
ICell cell = row.GetCell(j);
if (cell == null)
{
dt.Columns.Add(String.Format("emptyColumnName_{0}", empty++));
}
else
{
dt.Columns.Add(row.GetCell(j).ToString());
}
}
continue;
}
If you always want to read from the first sheet (probably, to get rid of the second method parameter, the sheet name, which is also the cause of your error), you may use:
// rest of the method's code
ISheet sheet = hssfworkbook.GetSheetAt(0);
if (sheet == null)
return dt;
var rows = sheet.GetRowEnumerator();
// rest of the method's code
