Find if the Worksheet is Dialog Sheet with Node.js via C++

Possible Usage Scenarios

Dialog Sheet is an old format of sheet that contains a dialog box. Such a sheet could be inserted by an older version of Microsoft Excel e.g. 2003, as shown in this screenshot. It can also be inserted with VBA in newer versions e.g. Microsoft Excel 2016.

You can find if the sheet is a dialog sheet or some other type of sheet with Worksheet.getType() property provided by Aspose.Cells for Node.js via C++. If it returns enumeration value SheetType.Dialog, then it means you are dealing with a dialog sheet.

Find if the Worksheet is Dialog Sheet

The following sample code loads the sample Excel file that contains a dialog sheet. It checks the Worksheet.getType() property, compares it with SheetType.Dialog, and then prints the message. Please see the console output of the sample code given below for more help.

Sample Code

const AsposeCells = require("aspose.cells.node");
const path = require("path");

// The path to the documents directory.
const dataDir = path.join(__dirname, "data");
const filePath = path.join(dataDir, "sampleFindIfWorksheetIsDialogSheet.xlsx");

// Load Excel file containing Dialog Sheet
const workbook = new AsposeCells.Workbook(filePath);

// Access first worksheet
const ws = workbook.getWorksheets().get(0);

// Find if the sheet type is dialog and print the message
if (ws.getType() === AsposeCells.SheetType.Dialog) {
console.log("Worksheet is a Dialog Sheet.");
}

Console Output

Worksheet is a Dialog Sheet.
