I have tried to find an answer to this question and I have not had any success. My issue is this. I have a comboBox that lists different formats to export a report to. One of those options is HTML. Basically what I want to do is take the dataGridView in a windows form and export as is to an HTML page. I would like to just export to an HTML table. I don't even know how to start on this so I don't have any sample code to provide. I am using c sharp 2008 windows app. Any advise would be greatly appreciated.
private StringBuilder DataGridtoHTML(DataGridView dg)
{
StringBuilder strB = new StringBuilder();
//create html & table
strB.AppendLine("<html><body><center><" +
"table border='1' cellpadding='0' cellspacing='0'>");
strB.AppendLine("<tr>");
//cteate table header
for (int i = 0; i < dg.Columns.Count; i++)
{
strB.AppendLine("<td align='center' valign='middle'>" +
dg.Columns[i].HeaderText + "</td>");
}
//create table body
strB.AppendLine("<tr>");
for (int i = 0; i < dg.Rows.Count; i++)
{
strB.AppendLine("<tr>");
foreach (DataGridViewCell dgvc in dg.Rows[i].Cells)
{
strB.AppendLine("<td align='center' valign='middle'>" +
dgvc.Value.ToString() + "</td>");
}
strB.AppendLine("</tr>");
}
//table footer & end of html file
strB.AppendLine("</table></center></body></html>");
return strB;}
The code above is from the link below but I am just giving you what you need which is DataGridView to HTML conversion.
