Methods

Add(Stream, Image, OleObjectType)

Adds the OLE object to the collection with embedded content

Declaration
IOleObject Add(Stream oleStream, Image image, OleObjectType type)
Parameters
Type Name Description
System.IO.Stream oleStream

The System.IO.Stream represents the OLE file stream.
Image image

The instance for the OLE image.
OleObjectType type

Type of OLE object.
Returns
Type Description
IOleObject

Newly created OLE object.
Remarks

This method is particularly used to embed the ole object for all object types except package type. This method is only supported in UWP, ASP.NET Core and Xamarin.

Examples

The following code illustrates how to add an IListObject to the IListObjects collection.

using Syncfusion.XlsIO;
using System.Drawing;
using System.IO;

class Program
{
    static void Main()
    {
        using (ExcelEngine excelEngine = new ExcelEngine())
        {
            //Create worksheet
            IApplication application = excelEngine.Excel;
            application.DefaultVersion = ExcelVersion.Excel2013;
            IWorkbook workbook = application.Workbooks.Create(1);
            IWorksheet worksheet = workbook.Worksheets[0];

            //Create file stream
            Stream stream = new FileStream("Shapes.xlsx", FileMode.Open);

            //Create image stream
            Image image = Image.FromFile("image.png");

            //Add ole object
            IOleObject oleObject = worksheet.OleObjects.Add(stream, image, OleObjectType.ExcelWorksheet);

            //Save and dispose
            workbook.SaveAs("OLEObjects.xlsx");
            workbook.Close();
        }
    }
}

Add(Stream, Image, String)

Adds the OLE object to the collection with embedded content

Declaration
IOleObject Add(Stream oleStream, Image image, string fileExtension)
Parameters
Type Name Description
System.IO.Stream oleStream

The System.IO.Stream represents the OLE file stream.
Image image

The instance for the OLE image.
System.String fileExtension

The string that specifies the file extension.
Returns
Type Description
IOleObject

Newly created OLE object.
Remarks

This method is particularly used to embed the ole object for object type package. This method is only supported in UWP, ASP.NET Core and Xamarin.

Examples

The following code illustrates how to add an IListObject to the IListObjects collection.

using Syncfusion.XlsIO;
using System.Drawing;
using System.IO;

class Program
{
    static void Main()
    {
        using (ExcelEngine excelEngine = new ExcelEngine())
        {
            //Create worksheet
            IApplication application = excelEngine.Excel;
            application.DefaultVersion = ExcelVersion.Excel2013;
            IWorkbook workbook = application.Workbooks.Create(1);
            IWorksheet worksheet = workbook.Worksheets[0];

            //Create file stream
            Stream stream = new FileStream("Shapes.xlsx", FileMode.Open);

            //Create image stream
            Image image = Image.FromFile("image.png");

            //Add ole object
            IOleObject oleObject = worksheet.OleObjects.Add(stream, image, "xlsx");

            //Save and dispose
            workbook.SaveAs("OLEObjects.xlsx");
            workbook.Close();
        }
    }
}

AddLink(String, Image)

Adds the OLE object to the collection with linking the content

Declaration
IOleObject AddLink(string filePath, Image image)
Parameters
Type Name Description
System.String filePath

The string that specifies the valid file path of the linked file.
Image image

The instance for the OLE image.
Returns
Type Description
IOleObject

Newly created OLE object.
Remarks

This method particularly used to add the ole objects. This method is only supported in UWP, ASP.NET Core and Xamarin.
