I Have Two sheets and i want to add data validation to first column and fill its value based on first sheets first column.
this is my code:
using (SpreadsheetDocument myDoc = SpreadsheetDocument.Create(path, SpreadsheetDocumentType.Workbook))
{
WorkbookPart workbookPart = myDoc.AddWorkbookPart();
workbookPart.Workbook = new Workbook();
Sheets sheets = myDoc.WorkbookPart.Workbook.AppendChild(new Sheets());
// the data for sheet 1
WorksheetPart worksheetPart1 = workbookPart.AddNewPart<WorksheetPart>();
Worksheet workSheet1 = new Worksheet();
SheetData sheetData1 = new SheetData();
workSheet1.AppendChild(sheetData1);
worksheetPart1.Worksheet = workSheet1;
Sheet sheet1 = new Sheet()
{
Id = myDoc.WorkbookPart.GetIdOfPart(worksheetPart1),
SheetId = 1,
Name = "Sheet1"
};
sheets.Append(sheet1);
// the data for sheet 2
WorksheetPart worksheetPart2 = workbookPart.AddNewPart<WorksheetPart>();
Worksheet workSheet2 = new Worksheet();
SheetData sheetData2 = new SheetData();
workSheet2.AppendChild(sheetData2);
worksheetPart2.Worksheet = workSheet2;
Sheet sheet2 = new Sheet()
{
Id = myDoc.WorkbookPart.GetIdOfPart(worksheetPart2),
SheetId = 2,
Name = "Sheet2"
};
sheets.Append(sheet2);
DataValidations dataValidations = new DataValidations();
DataValidation dataValidation = new DataValidation()
{
Type = DataValidationValues.List,
AllowBlank = true,
SequenceOfReferences = new ListValue<StringValue>() { InnerText = "A:A" }
};
Formula1 data = new Formula1();
data.Text = $""=Sheet1!$A:$A"";
dataValidation.Append(data);
dataValidations.Append(dataValidation);
worksheetPart2.Worksheet.AppendChild(dataValidations);
}
my problem is, when set data.TEXT equal $””=Sheet1!$A:$A””, it just show me a list with one row in dropdown.
I want to get values in first column of sheet 1 and fill drop down in sheet2 based on it

Method 1
With a small change your code worked for me. Just remove the inner quotes.
data.Text = $"=Sheet1!$A:$A";
