Yesterday I just added an extra check before this code to for this column <> null (I guess it's an akward workaround, but it worked), but I also found that if my query didn't return records (and, BTW, after the query the SiteID is indeed in the columns of the table of the Dataset) the Excel still was trying to create an empty file and obviously I don't want it.


Isn't there something like DataRow.Count or Row.Count ? Both rows and columns are a collection.
