You can save the data or the data and formatting in a Spread component to a Spread XML file or to a stream. When you save, all sheets in the component are saved to the file or stream. If you choose to save the formatting, the data saved includes formatting characters, such as currency symbols, and other information such as cell types are also saved.
For more details on the methods used, refer to the Save methods of the FpSpread class.
For instructions for opening Spread-compatible XML files, see Opening a Spread XML File.
Use the Save method of the FpSpread component specifying the path and file name of the Spread XML file or the Stream object, and whether to save data only.
