Applies To

fpSpread.SaveTabFile(ByVal FileName As String) As Boolean
Parameters
The following parameter is available:
Parameter | Description |
---|---|
FileName | Path and filename of file to which to save tab-delimited data |
Remarks
Use the SaveTabFile method to save the sheet data to an ANSI text file with tab-delimited data. To save the data to a Unicode file, call the SaveTabFileU function.
This method is called for the current sheet setting unless you first set the Sheet property to specify the sheet with which you want to work.
Data for each column is separated by tabs (ASCII 9, or `\t' in C++); rows are separated by carriage returns/line feeds (ASCII 13 and 10, or `\r' and `\n' in C++, respectively). The fpSpread control saves only text data to the tab-delimited file; the format of the text is not saved.
Tab-delimited files can be opened, modified, and saved using any standard text editor.
By default, tab-delimited files created using Spread or the Spread Designer have the extension .TB7. However, you may use any extension.
Return Type
True if successful; otherwise, False.
