ExcelApplication Template-to-Application Demo (VB.NET)

Demonstrates how to populate a template workbook with ExcelTemplate, and then programmatically manipulate the populated workbook with ExcelApplication.  Using ExcelTemplate and ExcelApplication objects together can be a powerful technique that allows you to combine the flexibility and ease of a template-based design approach with the power of a full Excel API.

Technical Overview

This demo begins with an ExcelTemplate workbook with data markers.  First, the ExcelTemplate object binds data to the data markers while preserving all existing Excel formats that were in the original template.  Then, the populated workbook is opened as an ExcelApplication Workbook where it can be programmatically manipulated.  ExcelApplication adds a chart.
