Remarks

You can export PivotGridControl’s data in XLS and XLSX formats using the PivotGridControl.ExportToXls and PivotGridControl.ExportToXlsx methods, respectively.

The UseNativeFormat option specifies whether values of numeric data fields are exported in XLS/XLSX format as numbers or as text. If the UseNativeFormat property is set to DefaultBoolean.Default, the actual export mode will be determined by the options or textExportMode parameter (depends on which overload is used) of the PivotGridControl.ExportToXls and PivotGridControl.ExportToXlsx method.
