Namespace: DevExpress.XtraPrinting

Assembly: DevExpress.Printing.v24.2.Core.dll

Declaration

C#

public void ExportToCsv(
    Stream stream
)

VB.NET

Public Sub ExportToCsv(
    stream As Stream
)

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
stream	Stream	A Stream object to which the created CSV file should be sent.

Remarks

Once the document export has started, it will run until the resulting document is complete and cannot be interrupted or canceled in the process.

Use this method to export a document to CSV format using its current CSV-specific export options. These options are represented by the CsvExportOptions object returned by the ExportOptions.Csv property of a printing system’s PrintingSystemBase.ExportOptions. This object provides the TextExportOptionsBase.Encoding, TextExportOptionsBase.Separator and other properties which are intended to specify parameters of the resulting CSV file.

If you want to ignore current export options of a printing system, and use your specific settings when a document is exported to CSV, you should use the overloaded PrintingSystemBase.ExportToCsv method with the options parameter.
