Insert Ranges

Introduction

In Excel, you can select a range, then insert a range and shift other data right or down.

Insert Ranges Using Aspose.Cells

Aspose.Cells provides Cells.InsertRange method to insert a range.

Insert Ranges And Shift Cells Right

Insert a ranage and shift cells right as the following codes with Aspose.Cells:

		   // Instantiate a new Workbook.
        Workbook workbook = new Workbook();

        // Get all the worksheets in the book.
        WorksheetCollection worksheets = workbook.getWorksheets();

        // Get the first worksheet in the worksheets collection.
        Worksheet worksheet = workbook.getWorksheets().get(0);

        // Create a range of cells.
        Range sourceRange = worksheet.getCells().createRange("A1", "A2");
        // Set a few cells in the range.
        sourceRange.get(0, 0).putValue("Test");
        sourceRange.get(1, 0).putValue("123");
        CellArea ca = CellArea.createCellArea("A1", "A2");
        worksheet.getCells().insertRange(ca, ShiftType.RIGHT);
        String b1Value = worksheet.getCells().get("B1").getStringValue();// "Test"

            

Insert Ranges And Shift Cells Down

Insert a ranage and shift cells down as the following codes with Aspose.Cells:

		   // Instantiate a new Workbook.
        Workbook workbook = new Workbook();

        // Get all the worksheets in the book.
        WorksheetCollection worksheets = workbook.getWorksheets();

        // Get the first worksheet in the worksheets collection.
        Worksheet worksheet = workbook.getWorksheets().get(0);

        // Create a range of cells.
        Range sourceRange = worksheet.getCells().createRange("A1", "A2");
        // Set a few cells in the range.
        sourceRange.get(0, 0).putValue("Test");
        sourceRange.get(1, 0).putValue("123");
        CellArea ca = CellArea.createCellArea("A1", "A2");
        worksheet.getCells().insertRange(ca, ShiftType.DOWN);
        String a3Value = worksheet.getCells().get("A3").getStringValue();// "Test"
