Upgrade to Modern Aspose.Cells Component

In order to assist the users for upgrading, we maintain a document describing information critical to existing users especially the ones who have been using the older Aspose.Excel and now, they want to upgrade to newer Aspose.Cells. These are intended to be brief notes, and you should be able to find more information checking all the sections of the Programmer’s Guide and Aspose.Cells API Reference .

Upgrading to Aspose.Cells

Sometimes the previous users (e.g., Aspose.Excel users) might contract an issue / problem or they found some features are missing in the version, alternatively, they need to to upgrade to the newer Aspose.Cells for their requirements. It is to be noted that Aspose.Excel has been renamed to become Aspose.Cells now, so, we cannot continue or make amendments with the older versions of Aspose.Excel component anymore. The new Aspose.Cells component is more reliable, stable and prosperous with enhanced and advanced functionality. We specially focus to optimize its performance for the most diverse scenarios. Just to emphasize, there is not much labor involved upgrading to Aspose.Cells component. However, when you upgrade to it,

Please note:

Some APIs (classes, struct, enumerations etc.) are added based on some advanced features that we now offer, the previous classes (with their members) are retained and optimised but a few classes are renamed, some additional members (properties, methods etc.) are also included for the classes with a very few excluded.

Following is the classes list which are renamed:

1. Excel class is replaced by Workbook class.
2. ExcelDesigner class is replaced by WorkbookDesigner class.
3. ExcelHelper class is replaced by CellsHelper class.
