AsDataSet() configuration options: Powershell Notation

Your Example for C#:

var result = reader.AsDataSet(new ExcelDataSetConfiguration() {
	
        ConfigureDataTable = (_) => new ExcelDataTableConfiguration() {
		    UseHeaderRow = true
	
        }
});

My rudimenary Basic snippet in PS5.1:

# ExcelDataTableConfiguration => okay
$dTabCnfObj = New-Object ExcelDataReader.ExcelDataTableConfiguration
$dTabCnfObj.UseHeaderRow = $true

# ExcelDataSetConfiguration => okay
$dSetCnfObj = New-Object ExcelDataReader.ExcelDataSetConfiguration
$dSetCnfObj.UseColumnDataType  = $true
# and now beginns the pain (add ExcelDataTableConfiguration to ExcelDataSetConfiguration):
$dSetCnfObj.ConfigureDataTable = "???? [working Example please]"
# $dSetCnfObj.ConfigureDataTable = $dTabCnfOb  didd not work of course ;-)

How accomplish the Same functionality in Powershell (native or with linq)? Can you translate this snippet to Powershell-Natation, please?

Thank you for any assistance

That looks neat. I prefer your approach with the anonymous lambda.

Seems I made more mistakes in my code sample, f.ex the syntax for passing a method is $function:ConfigureDataTableCallback. Apparently I should stop posting untested code samples for a language I’m not familiar with =)

Have updated my original sample with a more complete script - and actually tested now!

Closing, I think we solved this

No i have the Trick found 😉

$dSetCnfObj = New-Object ExcelDataReader.ExcelDataSetConfiguration
$dSetCnfObj.UseColumnDataType  = $true
$dSetCnfObj.ConfigureDataTable = {
	    $dTabCnfObj = New-Object ExcelDataReader.ExcelDataTableConfiguration
	    $dTabCnfObj.UseHeaderRow = $true
            return $dTabCnfObj # that does the Trick ...
}

This works for me.

Any better Approaches welcome 😃
