DataExport/DLL™ – the fast, easy, reliable way to export data from your Windows applications into Spreadsheets and Databases.
Easy to understand methods and properties, minimal language requirements, and flexible output methods allow you to output multiple file formats with minimal effort by incorporating DataExport into your software.
Language Requirements
The only requirement for the language you use is that it must allow you to access the methods and properties of an ActiveX component (DLL). |
Support for Automatic Incorporation of New Formats
DataExport interface allows you to query the component and retrieve information about the supported output formats and their characteristics. This feature allows you to easily accommodate new output formats as they are added to DataExport. With proper implementation, adding new formats to your application is as simple as copying and registering a new version into your program’s folder. |
Flexible Implementation
DataExport can be implemented with Cell-by-Cell output–using only methods passing the data to the component–or through File-Based translation using intermediate files. Cell-by-Cell output uses the DataExport methods to create and write an output file and gives you maximum control of the translation process. File-based translation allows you to quickly adapt existing file output routines to output new formats. These implementation options give you the flexibility to incorporate the DLL in the way that best suits the needs of your application. |
Simple, Uniform Interface
DataExport’s interface gives you a simple, direct path for setting up an output file and writing your data. One standard set of commands allows you to output over 40 formats. For complete technical and licensing information, download the DataExport help file from the Product Demo page. |
