Spreadsheet Export() method should return a boolean stating the export status is sucsess or not

For the Telerik Spreadsheet control, XlsxFormatProvider.Export() API is used for saving the .xlsx file manually without the UI command(Save As dialog) invocation. This API is currently returning a byte stream.

The requirement is that the API should also intimate the user whether the export is successful or not by returning a boolean value.

Note: I think we can implement this requirement at the base level which is for the BinaryFormatProviderBase class or atleast at the FormatProviderBase class.

Hello Sasidhar,

Thank you for the feedback. Every provided suggestion is highly appreciated and we are taking it into account for future improvements of our products.

The recommended way of checking whether the export (or import) operation was successful is to implement a try-catch statement on your side. So I am afraid we currently have no plans to change the API by providing such output so I am declining this request.

I hope you find this information helpful. Please let me know if there is anything else I can assist you with.

Regards,
Martin
