Hi Anas,

This can be achieved by enabling filter for the exported range in sheet. Refer the below code highlighted code,

var exportingOptions = new ExcelExportingOptions();

var excelEngine = dataGrid.ExportToExcel(dataGrid.View, exportingOptions);

var workBook = excelEngine.Excel.Workbooks[0];

workBook.Worksheets[0].AutoFilters.FilterRange = workBook.Worksheets[0].UsedRange;
workBook.SaveAs("sample.xlsx");


Thanks,
Sivakumar

Hi Sivakumar,

Thank you for your rapid answer.
If we use the UsedRange, we indeed have the filter for each excel column.
Now, if we have stacked header rows, is there a way to display the filters on the underneath columns not on the stacked Header itself ?

Regards,
Anas

Hi Anas,

Find the code snippet to enable filter based on stacked header rows.

var exportingOptions = new ExcelExportingOptions();

var excelEngine = dataGrid.ExportToExcel(dataGrid.View, options);

var workBook = excelEngine.Excel.Workbooks[0];

var worksheet = excelEngine.Excel.Workbooks[0].Worksheets[0];

var range = "A" + (dataGrid.StackedHeaderRows.Count + 1).ToString() + ":" + worksheet.UsedRange.End.AddressLocal;

excelEngine.Excel.Workbooks[0].Worksheets[0].AutoFilters.FilterRange = worksheet.Range[range];
workBook.SaveAs("sample.xlsx");
