Excel 2003

[Miguel]

Hello, I had an application that used the excel interop, but I have changed it and now, to create the excels I use telerik, but some of my clients that use Excel 2003 have problems to open the excel created, they appear rare characters. Any ideas please? My code is something like that

string nombre= ruta + "\\excel.xls";
Workbook workbook = new Workbook();
workbook.Sheets.Add(SheetType.Worksheet);
Worksheet xlsSheet = xlsBook.ActiveWorksheet;
xlsSheet.Cells[1, 1].SetValue("prueba");
...
...
//Guardamos y abrimos la excel.
IWorkbookFormatProvider formatProvider = WorkbookFormatProvidersManager.GetProviderByName("XlsxFormatProvider");
using (Stream output = new FileStream(nombre, FileMode.Create))
{
    formatProvider.Export(workbook, output);
}

Thank you!

Hi Miguel,

The XLS document format is currently not supported in RadSpreadProcessing. We have logged a feature request to implement import and export of XLS documents and I voted on your behalf for the implementation of the task. You can subscribe to receive notifications about changes in its status using this public item: SpreadProcessing: Support for import and export of .XLS documents. I am afraid that there isn't another component I could suggest you for working with this type of documents.

Please, let me know if there is anything else I can assist you with.
