GrapeCity PowerTools Announces the Community Technical Preview of Spread WPF-Silverlight
MORRISVILLE, N.C. --(Business Wire)--
Today, GrapeCity
PowerTools announces the launch of the Community Technical Preview
(CTP) of Spread WPF-Silverlight. Spread WPF-Silverlight includes a WPF
spreadsheet control and a Silverlight spreadsheet control. These
controls allow developers to embed the deep functionality found in
Microsoft (News - Alert)® Excel® into WPF and Silverlight applications, without
requiring Microsoft Excel on the client's machine.
Send an email to labs@GrapeCity.com
to sign up for the CTP. You will receive an email from GrapeCity
PowerTools explaining the CTP program and instructing where to download
the CTP setup.
Adding Spread WPF-Silverlight to applications empowers you with:
-
A robust and intuitive API for spreadsheet creation and automation.
-
Integrated import, modification, and export of xcel documents.
-
Rich data analysis with conditional formatting, filtering, spark
lines, and Excel-style grouping.
-
Enhanced data-interaction support with drag-fill, cell merge, and more.
Spread WPF-Silverlight is an embedded spreadsheet platform that is
ideally suited for the creation of advanced business, engineering, and
scientific WPF and Silverlight applications. Use Spread to import Excel
documents into your application, apply business rules, and manage the
entire user experience. Spread can save the results of data manipulation
and analysis to Excel or XML documents.
The design-time experience of Spread WPF-Silverlight could not be
easier, thanks to the SpreadSheet Designer. The SpreadSheet Designer is
a familiar, easy-to-use designer that allows developers to create and
modify spreadsheet layouts without having to edit XAML code and without
having to leave Visual Studio.
"The GrapeCity PowerTools development team is proud to launch the CTP
for Spread WPF-Silverlight. Every feature and element of Spread has been
designed to optimize performance, support defined use cases, and improve
the overall user experience," said Robby Powell, GrapeCity PowerTools
Director of Development. "The preliminary feedback has been very
positive, and we are eager to hear comments from more WPF and
Silverlight developers."
