    Exporting to Excel from DataGridView

    Hello guys and gals.
    As always any help is much appreciated.
    I am at a dilema. I am filling a datagridview with very lengthy results. Roughly 60k rows on average. I am filling them via an oracle database using a table adapter. The records then have a filter placed on them in the datagridview so the results displayed are a bit different.
    My problem: I built an export to excel function which populated a dataset and then red through it and wrote to excel. Bad idea with the amount of records I am using. I tried just writing the records straight to a csv file using streamwriter but I don't very much like this way.
    My proposal: I would like to fill an array from the datagridview and then be able to dump the array into excel.However I am having some trouble finding examples on creating an array from a datagridview.
    If anyone has encountered this problem or can suggest examples I would very much appreciate it.

    Thanks
Working...
