I am using a Windows application for exporting a data table to Excel. It's working. Now I want to give some color for particular text in the cell. How shall I do this?

To immediately spot negative values, you can highlight these cells using the if-function. As a starting point, prepare a list of all your accounting transactions. Mark the cells you want to highlight with colors according to their value. click on the tab named “Home” and find the button “Conditional formatting”.
On the Home tab, in the Styles group, click Conditional Formatting > New Rule… (see step 2 of How to dynamically change a cell color based on value for step-by-step guidance). In the "New Formatting Rule" dialog, select the option "Use a formula to determine which cells to format".
On the home tab, in the Styles subgroup, click on Conditional Formatting→New Rule. Now select Use a formula to determine which cells to format option, and in the box type the formula: D3>5; then select Format button to select green as the fill color.
For text:
[RangeObject].Font.Color = System.Drawing.ColorTranslator.ToOle(System.Drawing.Color.Red); For cell background
[RangeObject].Interior.Color = System.Drawing.ColorTranslator.ToOle(System.Drawing.Color.Red); Note: This assumes that you will declare constants for row and column indexes named COLUMN_HEADING_ROW, FIRST_COL, and LAST_COL, and that _xlSheet is the name of the ExcelSheet (using Microsoft.Interop.Excel)
First, define the range:
var columnHeadingsRange = _xlSheet.Range[ _xlSheet.Cells[COLUMN_HEADING_ROW, FIRST_COL], _xlSheet.Cells[COLUMN_HEADING_ROW, LAST_COL]]; Then, set the background color of that range:
columnHeadingsRange.Interior.Color = XlRgbColor.rgbSkyBlue; Finally, set the font color:
columnHeadingsRange.Font.Color = XlRgbColor.rgbWhite; And here's the code combined:
var columnHeadingsRange = _xlSheet.Range[ _xlSheet.Cells[COLUMN_HEADING_ROW, FIRST_COL], _xlSheet.Cells[COLUMN_HEADING_ROW, LAST_COL]]; columnHeadingsRange.Interior.Color = XlRgbColor.rgbSkyBlue; columnHeadingsRange.Font.Color = XlRgbColor.rgbWhite; If you love us?
