Hi,

I have 10 Excel files in a folder D:\Excel_Files\ (file_1.xlsx, File_2.xlsx ......and so on)

Each excel file has one sheet. The name of the sheet is same as file name.

This is what I wanted to do;
The 3rd column of all 10 excel sheets needs to be deleted. I am using Microsoft Visual studio 2010 and I want a script task code which can delete the 3rd column of all 10 excel sheets.

thanks in advance.

    Hi @SAJID RAZA KHAN ,

    Please check below code.

    string[] files = Directory.GetFiles(@"C:\Test", "*.xlsx");  
    foreach (var item in files)  
    {  
    Excel.Application excel = new Excel.Application();  
    Excel.Workbook workbook = excel.Workbooks.Open(item);  
    Excel.Worksheet worksheet = workbook.Worksheets["Sheet1"];  
    worksheet.Columns[3].Delete();  
    workbook.Save();  
    Console.WriteLine("yes");  
    }  
    

    Don't forget to add Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel in NuGet package.
