Write Array to Excel Range

This is an excerpt from method of mine, which converts a DataTable (the dt variable) into an array and then writes the array into a Range on a worksheet (wsh var). You can also change the topRow variable to whatever row you want the array of strings to be placed at.

object[,] arr = new object[dt.Rows.Count, dt.Columns.Count];
for (int r = 0; r < dt.Rows.Count; r++)
{
    DataRow dr = dt.Rows[r];
    for (int c = 0; c < dt.Columns.Count; c++)
    {
        arr[r, c] = dr[c];
    }
}
Excel.Range c1 = (Excel.Range)wsh.Cells[topRow, 1];
Excel.Range c2 = (Excel.Range)wsh.Cells[topRow + dt.Rows.Count - 1, dt.Columns.Count];
Excel.Range range = wsh.get_Range(c1, c2);
range.Value = arr;

Of course you do not need to use an intermediate DataTable like I did, the code excerpt is just to demonstrate how an array can be written to worksheet in single call.
