When loading text files, rows and columns are added to the grid if needed to accommodate the file contents. Text files contain only data and no formatting information.

When loading Excel files, the grid retrieves the first worksheet from the specified workbook file. The LoadExcel(String,String,FileFlags) method allows you to specify which worksheet should be loaded. You can use the LoadExcelSheetNames method allows you to retrieve a list of the worksheets stored in an XLS file. The grid can save and load data and formatting information from XLS files.

Grids can also be persisted to Xml format using the WriteXml(String) and ReadXml(String) methods.
