ExcelFile.ColCountInRow Method
Overloads
ExcelFile.ColCountInRow(Int32)
This method returns the NOT EMPTY cells on ONE ROW.
Note that this is not the full column count, but only the count of those columns that have any data on them for the given row. So for example if in row 2 you have a value in A2 and another in E2, ColCountInRow(2) will return 2 (cells A2 and E2), not 5 (columns from A to E).
You can use this together with ColFromIndex(Int32, Int32) and ColToIndex(Int32, Int32) to iterate faster on a block, skipping all empty cells.
Syntax
Namespace: FlexCel.Core
public abstract Int32 ColCountInRow(Int32 row)
Parameters
<-> | Parameter | Type | Description |
---|---|---|---|
row | Int32 | Row index. (1-based) |
Returns
The number of existing columns on one row.
Examples
Instead of writing:
int RowCount = xls.RowCount;
int ColCount = xls.ColCount;
for (int row = 1; row <= RowCount; row++)
{
for (int col = 1; col <= ColCount; col++) //It would be faster to use ColCountInRow. See https://doc.tmssoftware.com/flexcel/net/guides/performance-guide.html#avoid-calling-colcount
{
DoSomething(row, col);
}
}
You can use:
int RowCount = xls.RowCount;
for (int row = 1; row <= RowCount; row++)
{
int ColCountInRow = xls.ColCountInRow(row);
for (int colIndex = 1; colIndex <= ColCountInRow; colIndex++)
{
DoSomething(row, xls.ColFromIndex(row, colIndex));
}
}

ExcelFile.ColCountInRow(Int32, Int32)
This method returns the NOT EMPTY cells on ONE ROW, for a given sheet.
Note that this is not the full column count, but only the count of those columns that have any data on them for the given row. So for example if in row 2 you have a value in A2 and another in E2, ColCountInRow(2) will return 2 (cells A2 and E2), not 5 (columns from A to E).
You can use this together with ColFromIndex(Int32, Int32) and ColToIndex(Int32, Int32) to iterate faster on a block, skipping all empty cells. Or you can call LoopOverUsedRange for a method that does the looping for you using those methods.

row | Int32 | Row index. (1-based) |
