I'm looking for a C# programmer to develop a program that runs as a service, polls for files, and creates an Excel spreadsheet. The source of the files to be polled is a file directory, and the program will be checking for new files on a continuous basis. It must be able to create these files without any user logged into the server. Office can be installed if needed. The spec is attached. Please let me know if you have any questions. Detailed installation instructions will be needed, but it doesn't need to be bundled into a software release, just detailed enough for another engineer to know the steps for implementation and maintenance. Please comment your code copiously so others can follow it in the future if needed.

I am an expert C# developer, have worked on a similar project as yours. It polled on a directory and checked for new files and if any new file found or any file is modified it sent the file over a tcp protocol. I like to produce code which is not only readable and understandable but is also extendible. For the installer to be detailed I would suggest a user manual to be made instead Please get in touch over chat to discuss further details

I have gone through the attached .docx file..Here is my understanding 1-Three directories are there a)Starting (polling will be done for new files) b)Processing (Status update with percentage) c)Completed (After processing xlsx file will be copied here, Old files be deleted after one day) 2-Once new file is found in Starting directory, program will automatically fetch and read the stuff line by line (please clarify whether the format of file always remain the same ?) 3- character (^) will be used as a field separator.. Some clarification is required for ([char]##) removal 4-if the line starts with "SpecialProcessing" then several functions will be performed based upon values (This needs a bit of discussion. a)SpecialProcessing:Value:(A1)"Text to Populate with"(General,1*,1*,bold)** -->Cell A1 be populated with "Text to Populate with" -->Font will be bold , what does General mean here, is it alignment, also 1* 1* needs a discussion b) all rules will be implemented 5-Please specify if line does not start with SpecialProcessing then data will be moved to excel as it is ? 6-Hopefully microsoft excel will not need to be installed on server, i will use OpenXML Looking forward to have a chat with you to discuss further.

Hi, I have 6+ years of experience in application development. I can write a great windows service (C#) for this use case. It will auto start on boot and will run under session zero. So a login to the server will not be required.

Hi I have read and saw the guidelines given on the document. I can do this effectively. Here are my understanding please confirm if I am correct: The final exe file will keep running in the desktop with a thread looking every 30secs for new files. And whatever found it will process them accordingly. The main question is, as you have said it should look at the server without any login credentials. I hope the server allows and network based API to do that. Otherwise without the login credentials accessing files from a different PC is not possible.
