Create, Manipulate or Remove Scenarios from Worksheets

Sometimes, you need to create, manipulate or delete scenarios in spreadsheets. A scenario is a named ‘what if?’ model that includes variable input cells linked by one or more formulas. Before creating a scenario, design the worksheet so that it contains at least one formula that depends on cells that different values can be inserted into. The following example shows how to create and remove scenarios from a worksheet in a workbook via Aspose.Cells APIs.

Aspose.Cells provides some useful classes, for example, ScenarioCollection, Scenario, ScenarioInputCellCollection, and ScenarioInputCell classes. It also provides the Worksheet.Scenarios property. The sample code below opens an XLSX Excel file that contains some scenarios and removes an existing scenario. It also adds a new scenario to the worksheet before saving the Excel file. The example uses a very simple template file that contains a scenario.
