How to read data from excel sheet and insert into database table in C#

Reading excel file using EPPlus package and inserting into table is very easy in C# MVC framework. Here I have created a simple method which expect file name (with full path) as only parameter and read first worksheet and dump data into table. Following item you need to considered before you copy below code:

1) Below code only read first sheet of the workbook. Yes you can modify it anytime to read multiple sheets.

2) It assumes that, data which need to be inserted start from the top of the excel. Means there is no column header.

3) And below insert statement does not include column name (which specific to my requirement).

Such statments called "blind insert". One should include column name in insert statements. Blind insert are highly not recommanded.

public bool readXLS(string FilePath)
{
    FileInfo existingFile = new FileInfo(FilePath);
    using (ExcelPackage package = new ExcelPackage(existingFile))
    {
        //get the first worksheet in the workbook
        ExcelWorksheet worksheet = package.Workbook.Worksheets[1];
        int colCount = worksheet.Dimension.End.Column;  //get Column Count
        int rowCount = worksheet.Dimension.End.Row;     //get row count
        string queryString = "INSERT INTO tableName VALUES";        //Here I am using "blind insert". You can specify the column names Blient inset is strongly not recommanded
        string eachVal = "";
        bool status;
        for (int row = 1; row <= rowCount; row++)
        {
            queryString += "(";
            for (int col = 1; col <= colCount; col++)
            {
                eachVal = worksheet.Cells[row, col].Value.ToString().Trim();
                queryString += "'" + eachVal + "',";
            }
            queryString = queryString.Remove(queryString.Length - 1, 1);    //removing last comma (,) from the string
            if (row % 1000 == 0)        //On every 1000 query will execute, as maximum of 1000 will be executed at a time. 
            {
                queryString += ")";
                status = this.runQuery(queryString);    //executing query
                if (status == false)
                    return status;
                queryString = "INSERT INTO tableName VALUES";
            }
            else
            {
                queryString += "),";
            }
        }
        queryString = queryString.Remove(queryString.Length - 1, 1);    //removing last comma (,) from the string
        status = this.runQuery(queryString);    //executing query
        return status;
    }
}
