Open source component or unit for exporting Delphi TDataSet to native XLS without Excel installed [closed]

Answer 1

give smExport a try. Not free, but reasonably priced with 35€ / 50 € (without/ with source). They also have a trial version (limited by the number of rows you can export). In addition it supports exports into lots of other formats.

Answer 3

I have used the components mxExport from Max. It's free and with source code avaible. The page it's now offline (http://www.maxcomponents.net/) but you can find the components in other places:

• Torry
• FTP ClubDelphi (all components libraries of Max)
• ...

Check components: mxExports and mxNativeExcel.
