When I open a document where I applied Double Borders to the top or bottom of a cell, only the top line of the double border shows initially.  If I change the view in any way (page down and back, change tab then back), then the double border shows correctly.  It is only on initial open that the problem shows.  If I save the file from Excel and re-open it, then the border shows correctly.

Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load

Dim BOOK As New Aspose.Cells.Workbook

Dim SHEET As Aspose.Cells.Worksheet = BOOK.Worksheets.Item(1 - 1)

SHEET.Cells(6 - 1, 1 - 1).PutValue("15.3", True)

SHEET.Cells(7 - 1, 1 - 1).Formula = "=SUM(A6:A6)"

Dim STYLE As Aspose.Cells.Style = BOOK.Styles.Item(BOOK.Styles.Add)

Dim FLAG As New Aspose.Cells.StyleFlag

FLAG.TopBorder = True

STYLE.Borders.Item(Aspose.Cells.BorderType.TopBorder).LineStyle = Aspose.Cells.CellBorderType.Double

SHEET.Cells.CreateRange(7 - 1, 1 - 1, 1, 1).ApplyStyle(STYLE, FLAG)

BOOK.Save("C:\Testing\A.xls")

End Sub 'Form1_Load

When you ran the report, the watermark page comes up first.  When you change the page, the double border shows correctly.  This problem only shows up if the worksheet with the Double Border cells is the ActiveSheetIndex.  I got the same results using the 5.2.0.3 vesion of Aspose.Cells.dll.

Please re-run the code with your own license.

Dim xlaLIC As New Aspose.Cells.License

xlaLIC.SetLicense(New System.IO.StreamReader("C:\Testing\Aspose.Cells.lic").BaseStream)

   I am still getting this problem upon opening the document generated with my registered version of Aspose Cells version 5.2.0.3.  When I use Microsoft Excel 2003 SP3 to open the generated A.xls file, I see the double borders on Sheet1 between rows 7 and 8 are missing.  It only happens around cells with a formula.

   There are similar problems with the Medium and Thick borders.

 

Dim xlaLIC As New Aspose.Cells.License : xlaLIC.SetLicense(New System.IO.StreamReader("C:\Testing\\Aspose.Cells.lic").BaseStream)

Dim BOOK As New Aspose.Cells.Workbook

Dim SHEET As Aspose.Cells.Worksheet = BOOK.Worksheets.Item(1 - 1)

SHEET.Cells(5 - 1, 1 - 1).PutValue("15.3", True)

SHEET.Cells(6 - 1, 1 - 1).PutValue("15.3", True)

SHEET.Cells(7 - 1, 1 - 1).Formula = "=SUM(A6:A6)"

SHEET.Cells(8 - 1, 1 - 1).Formula = "=SUM(A6:A6)"

Dim STYLE As Aspose.Cells.Style = BOOK.Styles.Item(BOOK.Styles.Add)

Dim FLAG As New Aspose.Cells.StyleFlag

FLAG.TopBorder = True

STYLE.Borders.Item(Aspose.Cells.BorderType.TopBorder).LineStyle = Aspose.Cells.CellBorderType.Double

SHEET.Cells.CreateRange(5 - 1, 1 - 1, 6, 3).ApplyStyle(STYLE, FLAG)

BOOK.Worksheets.ActiveSheetIndex = 0

BOOK.Save("C:\Testing\A.xls")

The issue is present in the document you presented.  I have attached a screen-shot of my Excel application upon opening your borderTest.xls.  Cells A7 and A8 are displayed with incomplete borders.  My Excel version is Microsoft Office Excel 2003 (11.8328.8329) SP3, part of Microsoft Office Professional Edition 2003.

Hi Thomas,

Hi,

Could you add two coding lines before saving the file, it should work fine.

BOOK.CalculateFormula();

BOOK.Settings.ReCalculateOnOpen = false;

BOOK.Save(@"D:\FileTemp\A.xls");

 Thank you.

This fixed the symptom.  The problem still exists.  Thanks for the work-around.

I'm experiencing the same issue using Aspose.Cellls 7.1.0.0 and Excel 2010 but the workaround is not working for me. The double underline does not show properly until I switch sheets in the workbook and come back or re-save the workbook in Excel.  I have attached before and after images of a cell with double underline.  A similar issue occurs with a thick border.

Please download and try this fix: Aspose.Cells for .NET v7.1.0.6 and let us know your results.
