Adding a Page Break to a Worksheet

You can easily add page breaks in rows and columns for files in OpenXML (.xlsx) format using the PageBreak and PageBreak properties.

  1. Add a reference to C1.WPF.Excel.dll or C1.Silverlight.Excel.dll and create a C1XLBook.

    C#
    Copy Code
    // Create a new workbook to be saved
     C1XLBook book = new C1XLBook();
    
  2. Add some text values and page breaks using the following code:

    C#
    Copy Code
    book.Sheets[0][2, 3].Value = "page1";
    book.Sheets[0].Rows[2].PageBreak = true;
    
    book.Sheets[0][0, 1].Value = "test1";
    book.Sheets[0][0, 2].Value = "test2";
    
    book.Sheets[0].Columns[1].PageBreak = true;
    book.Sheets[0][3, 3].Value = "page2";
    
  3. Save and open the .xlsx file.

    C#
    Copy Code
    // Save and open the file
    book.Save(@"C:\test.xlsx");
    System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(@"C:\test.xlsx");
    
  4. In Excel, select the Page Layout tab, and select the Print checkbox under Gridlines. The worksheet should look similar to the following:
