title: Excel Parsing using NuGet NPOI using ASP.Net Core 2.0
body: <p>I am using visual studio 2017 most updated version and Asp.Net Core 2.0 SDK to create a Web Api that needs to read excel which was uploaded earlier into Azure File Storage. Now I am able to get the excel file downloaded but I need to read and parse individual cells from the excel sheet. To achieve this currently I am trying to use Package manager NPOI (Nuget). </p>
  
  <p>Below is the command I am using for this:
      <pre>Pm> Install-Package NPOI -Version 2.3.0</pre></p>
  
  <p>But after running this I get the below error:
      <pre>Unable to find Package from NuGet</pre></p>
  
  <p>Note, I have checked  in my "Project.csproj" file for adding appropriate refernce of , but even after adding it’s not working.. </p>
  
  <p>Below is my Project.csproj file:</p>
  
  <p><code>&lt;Project Sdk="Microsoft.NET.Sdk.Web"&gt;</code><br>
  <code>&lt;PropertyGroup&gt;</code><br> 
     <code>&lt;TargetFramework&gt;netcoreapp2.0&lt;/TargetFramework&gt;</code><br>
   <code>&lt;/PropertyGroup&gt;</code><br></p>
  
  <p><code>&lt;ItemGroup&gt;</code><br>
     <code>&lt;Folder Include="Services\" /&gt;</code><br>
     <code>&lt;Folder Include="wwwroot\" /&gt;</code><br>
   <code>&lt;/ItemGroup&gt;</code><br></p>
  
  <p><code>&lt;ItemGroup&gt;</code><br>
     <code>&lt;PackageReference Include="Microsoft.AspNetCore.All" Version="2.0.0" /&gt;</code><br>
     <code>&lt;PackageReference Include="Swashbuckle.AspNetCore" Version="1.0.0" /&gt;</code><br>
     <code>&lt;PackageReference Include="AspNetCore.NPOI" Version="2.3.0" /&gt;</code><br>
   <code>&lt;/ItemGroup&gt;</code><br></p>
  
  <p><code>&lt;ItemGroup&gt;</code><br>
     <code>&lt;DotNetCliToolReference Include="Microsoft.VisualStudio.Web.CodeGeneration.Tools" Version="2.0.0" /&gt;</code><br>
   <code>&lt;/ItemGroup&gt;</code><br></p>
  
  <p><code>&lt;/Project&gt;</code><br></p>
  
  <p>....
