Import and export Microsoft® Excel® workbooks in high-fidelity, with the compiled assembly that reads and writes in the widely-interoperable XLS/XLSX/ExcelML file formats. With absolutely no Excel dependency, your Silverlight application can run completely independent of Excel, and Excel does not have to be installed alongside your application.

  • Absolutely No Excel Dependency – Infragistics.Excel is a compiled assembly that runs completely independently of Microsoft Excel, so you do not require it to be installed on the client or server.
  • 100% Managed, 100% Client Side – This is not a wrapper around native OLE file system libraries, and not a callback to server-side code. Everything takes place within Silverlight on the user's browser!
  • Read or Write ExcelML – Use the compiled assembly to read in existing Excel files from the users local system, or generate new Excel files and save them in the widely compatible .XLS, .XLSX and ExcelML formats.
