Spread for ASP.NET 10 Product Documentation
Opening a Spread XML File

Spread can save data or data and formatting to an XML file or a stream, which you can then open back into the FpSpread component. You can open a Spread XML file or stream of an entire component or a specific sheet.

You can also open a file from inside Spread Designer.

Refer to the SheetView class Open method to open a specific sheet. Use the FpSpread Open method to open the entire control.

For instructions for saving Spread XML files, see Saving to a Spread XML File.

Using Code

Use the FpSpread component’s Open method, specifying the path and file name of the Spread XML file to open or the Stream object to open.
