The following members return Table objects:
To manage data easier and more effective, you can convert an ordinary cell range to a table. To do this, call the TableCollection.Add method with the passed range of cells. After a table is created, you can utilize the following functionalities.
Table Columns
Total Row
Quickly Format Tables
Structured References
All tables of a worksheet are stored in the TableCollection collection that is returned by the Worksheet.Tables property.
This example demonstrates how to create a table from a range of cells. The sample range includes a list of products and invoice information on each product: price, quantity and discount.
The resulting table will provide an additional column to calculate the amount per product, and an additional row to show the total amount. Follow the steps below:
Create a Table
Format the Table
Table Columns
Table Header Row
Calculated Column
Table Total Row
Total Row Function
