Hi C1,
could you confirm this? It seems “C1FlexGrid.SaveExcel” does not support creating “XLS” files in the .NET 6 versions any more?
This is OK for me, I just need the confirmation.
Is there any comparisons between the different versions? I also noticed that “C1.Win.C1FlexGrid.IC1EmbeddedEditor” was changed to “C1.Win.IEmbeddedEditor”.
Best regards
Wolfgang

The “SaveExcel” does not complain if the target file has the extension “.xls” - it just created an “.xslx” file anyway, which results in an excel error when opening it. So I suggest to add some check to prevent this error.

Hi,
We have escalated the issue to the development to get their insights on it. We will let you know as soon as we have an update.
As per the method comment, C1.Win.C1FlexGrid.IC1EmbeddedEditor is now deprecated and you can use C1.Win.IEmbeddedEditor instead. We are also getting in touch with the development to get information on the changes and will let you know as soon as we have an update.

Hi Wolfgang,
As per the development team, .NET 6 C1FlexGrid only supports exports to XLSX excel files. Even if you provide any other file extension in the SaveExcel method, it will be saved in xlsx format.

OK. But you should raise an error if an extension “xls” is specified, as excel refuses to open such a file.
The list of changes in the .NET6 version is still underway?
Best regards

Could you please tell me where this was listed in the change log? I’m looking at all versions posted here https://www.grapecity.com/componentone/docs/win/online-releasehistory/releasehistory.html and I can’t find anything that matches what you have.

Hi,
The changes we mentioned were breaking changes in the NET5 and were included in the NET5 changelog that was included with the release. We have attached the changelog since NET5 controls are in maintenance mode and will not be included starting the 22v2 release.
We were able to see that the changes are not included on the online release history and have notified the concerned team and they will update it as soon as possible.
Regards

Just for the records: support for XLS was reintroduced by .603 (and caused a bit of trouble for me, because I had to add the code again that applies “FileFlags.OpenXml” to “C1FlexGrid.SaveGridExcel (Stream, …)” when creating XLSX files).
