Import from excel into MVC grid

[Informed Sources]

Hi,

 I've searched google and the forums, but couldn't find anything about the MVC grid.

Is it possible to import from excel into an MVC grid? I wanted the importer to import the data by matching on column names, and mark which values have changed, before saving.

One possible way I could do it would be to populate a Javascript object like this: http://oss.sheetjs.com/

Then use that object to fill the grid with data. Are there any examples of filling the grid this way?

Hello Adam,

Importing data from Excel in the Grid is not supported. Currently we do not have any examples demonstrating suitable workarounds.
