This method opens a stream, which means replacing anything in the spreadsheet and overwriting it with the contents of the stream. If you want to load only the data into the existing spreadsheet without overwriting anything else, use the SheetView's LoadTextFile method.

Example
This example opens a file.
FarPoint.Win.Spread.FpSpread fpSpread1 = new FarPoint.Win.Spread.FpSpread();
FarPoint.Win.Spread.SheetView shv = new FarPoint.Win.Spread.SheetView();
fpSpread1.Location = new Point(10, 10);
fpSpread1.Height = 200;
fpSpread1.Width = 400;
Controls.Add(fpSpread1);
fpSpread1.Sheets.Add(shv);
string fileName;
fileName = "..\\..\\bin\\testsaveopen.xml";
System.IO.Stream stream; 
stream = System.IO.File.Open(fileName, System.IO.FileMode.Open);
fpSpread1.Open(stream);
Dim fpSpread1 As New FarPoint.Win.Spread.FpSpread()
Dim shv As New FarPoint.Win.Spread.SheetView()
fpSpread1.Location = New Point(10, 10)
fpSpread1.Height = 200
fpSpread1.Width = 400
Controls.Add(fpSpread1)
fpSpread1.Sheets.Add(shv)
Dim fileName As String
fileName = "..\bin\testsaveopen.xml"
