Hi, I'm looking to move from DevXpress to Spire.DataExport but your either lacking documentation or features. I want to export a DataTable but I want the font color to change based on the cell value e.g. negative values are red and positive is green. I want this then applied to all applicable exports e.g. PDF, HTML and XLSX. Is this possible?

Hello,

Thanks for your interested in our products.
Sorry that our Spire.DataExport doesn't support to format the specific value at present, but our other products can achieve it.
You could please use Spire.Xls to get Excel.
Code: Select all
        static void GetExcel()
        {
            Workbook workbook = new Workbook();
            Worksheet sheet = workbook.Worksheets[0];
            //the datatable is yours
            sheet.InsertDataTable(datable, true, 1, 1);
            foreach (CellRange cell in sheet.Cells)
            {
                if (cell.Value == "negative")
                {
                    cell.Style.Font.Color = Color.Red;
                }
                if (cell.Value == "positive")
                {
                    cell.Style.Font.Color = Color.Green;
                }
            }
            workbook.SaveToFile("sample.xlsx", ExcelVersion.Version2007);
        }

You could please use Spire.Doc to get HTML and PDF you want.
Code: Select all
            Document document = new Document();
            Section section = document.AddSection();
            Table table= section.AddTable(true);
            table.TableFormat.Borders.BorderType = BorderStyle.Single;

            //the datatable is yours
            table.ResetCells(datatable.Rows.Count, datatable.Columns.Count);
            string value=null;

            TableCell cell=null;
            TextRange range = null;

            for (int i = 0; i < datatable.Rows.Count; i++)
            {
                for (int j = 0; j < datatable.Columns.Count; j++)
                {
                     value= datatable.Rows[i][j].ToString();
                     cell = table.Rows[i].Cells[j];
                     cell.CellFormat.Borders.LineWidth = 1;
                     range= cell.AddParagraph().AppendText(value);

                    if (value == "negative")
                    {
                        range.CharacterFormat.TextColor = Color.Red;
                    }

                    if (value == "positive")
                    {
                        range.CharacterFormat.TextColor = Color.Green;
                    }
                }
            }
           
            //Get Html
           document.SaveToFile("sample.html",FileFormat.Html);
            //Get PDF
           //document.SaveToFile("sample.pdf",FileFormat.PDF);
