Namespace: DevExpress.XtraPrinting

Assembly: DevExpress.Printing.v20.2.Core.dll

NuGet Packages: DevExpress.Printing.Core, DevExpress.WindowsDesktop.Printing.Core

Declaration

C#

public virtual void ExportToXls(
    Stream stream,
    XlsExportOptions options
)

VB.NET

Public Overridable Sub ExportToXls(
    stream As Stream,
    options As XlsExportOptions
)

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
stream	Stream	A Stream object to which the created XLS file should be sent.
options	XlsExportOptions	An XlsExportOptions object which specifies the XLS export options to be applied when a report is exported.

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 report in XLS format using the specified XLS export options (e.g. XlExportOptionsBase.ShowGridLines, XlExportOptionsBase.TextExportMode and so on).

Note that in this instance the current report export options, which are represented by the XlsExportOptions object returned by the ExportOptions.Xls property of a printing system’s PrintingSystemBase.ExportOptions, are ignored.

If you want to use the current export options of a report, you should call the overloaded PrintingSystemBase.ExportToXls method without the options parameter.
