This section will show you a detail solution to easily convert RTF to HTML in your WPF application via a .NET Word component. Only two lines of core code in total will be used to realize your RTF to HTML task in this solution.
Spire.Doc for WPF, as a professional MS Word component on WPF, enables you to accomplish RTF to HTML task through following two methods: Document.LoadFromFile(string fileName, FileFormat fileFormat) called to load your RTF file from system and Document. SaveToFile(string ilename, FileFormat fileFormat) is used to save the RTF file as HTML.
Now, you can download Spire.Doc for WPF and then, view the effect of RTF to HTML task as below picture:

Sample Code:
using Spire.Doc;
using Spire.Doc.Documents;
namespace wpfrtftohtml
{
public partial class MainWindow : Window
{
public MainWindow()
{
InitializeComponent();
}
private void button1_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
//Load RTF file
Document document = new Document();
document.LoadFromFile(@"..\wpfrtftohtml.rtf", FileFormat.Rtf);
//Convert rtf to html
document.SaveToFile("rtftohtml.html", FileFormat.Html);
}
}
}
Imports Spire.Doc
Imports Spire.Doc.Documents
Namespace wpfrtftohtml
Public Class MainWindow
Inherits Window
Public Sub New()
MyBase.New
InitializeComponent
End Sub
Private Sub button1_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As RoutedEventArgs)
'Load RTF file
Dim document As Document = New Document
document.LoadFromFile("..\wpfrtftohtml.rtf", FileFormat.Rtf)
'Convert rtf to html
document.SaveToFile("rtftohtml.html", FileFormat.Html)
End Sub
End Class
End Namespace
A CSV (Comma Separated Values) file is a plain text file that contains data separated by commas. It is widely used to import or export data from one application to another. In some cases, you might need to do conversions between CSV and Excel. In this article, you will learn how to implement this function programmatically in C# and VB.NET using Spire.XLS for .NET library.
Install Spire.XLS for .NET
To begin with, you need to add the DLL files included in the Spire.XLS for .NET package as references in your .NET project. The DLL files can be either downloaded from this link or installed via NuGet.

Convert Excel to CSV in C# and VB.NET
The following are the steps to convert Excel to CSV:
- Create an instance of Workbook class.
- Load an Excel file using Workbook.LoadFromFile() method.
- Get the desired worksheet by its index using Workbook.Worksheets[index] property.
- Save the worksheet as CSV using XlsWorksheet.SaveToFile() method. You can choose one of the following overloaded SaveToFile() methods:
- SaveToFile(string fileName, string separator)
- SaveToFile(string fileName, string separator, Encoding encoding)
- SaveToFile(string fileName, string separator, bool retainHiddenData)
- C#
- VB.NET
using Spire.Xls;
using System.Text;
namespace ConvertAWorksheetToCsv
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
//Create an instance of Workbook class
Workbook workbook = new Workbook();
//Load an Excel file
workbook.LoadFromFile("Sample.xlsx");
//Get the first worksheet
Worksheet sheet = workbook.Worksheets[0];
//Save the worksheet as CSV
sheet.SaveToFile("ExcelToCSV.csv", ",", Encoding.UTF8);
}
}
}

Convert CSV to Excel in C# and VB.NET
The following are the steps to convert CSV to Excel:
- Create an instance of Workbook class.
- Load a CSV file using Workbook.LoadFromFile(string fileName, string separator, int startRow, int startColumn) method.
- Get the desired worksheet by its index using Workbook.Worksheets[index] property.
- Access the used range of the worksheet using Worksheet.AllocatedRange property. Then set CellRange.IgnoreErrorOptions property as IgnoreErrorType.NumberAsText to ignore possible errors while saving the numbers in the range as text.
- Autofit columns and rows using CellRange.AutoFitColumns() and CellRange.AutoFitRows() methods.
- Save the CSV to Excel using Workbook.SaveToFile(string fileName, ExcelVersion version) method.
- C#
- VB.NET
using Spire.Xls;
namespace ConvertCsvToExcel
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
//Create an instance of Workbook class
Workbook workbook = new Workbook();
//Load a CSV file
workbook.LoadFromFile(@"ExcelToCSV.csv", ",", 1, 1);
//Get the first worksheet
Worksheet sheet = workbook.Worksheets[0];
//Access the used range in the worksheet
CellRange usedRange = sheet.AllocatedRange;
//Ignore errors when saving numbers in the range as text
usedRange.IgnoreErrorOptions = IgnoreErrorType.NumberAsText;
//Autofit columns and rows
usedRange.AutoFitColumns();
usedRange.AutoFitRows();
//Save the result file
workbook.SaveToFile("CSVToExcel.xlsx", ExcelVersion.Version2013);
}
}
}

Excel Panes can be frozen in order to keep certain rows or columns visible when scrolling through the worksheet. This is particularly helpful when you have a huge amount of data that you need to deal with. In this article, you will learn how to freeze rows or/and columns in C# and VB.NET using Sprie.XLS for .NET.
Spire.XLS provides the Worksheet.FreezePanes(int rowIndex, int columnIndex) method to freeze all rows and columns above and left of the selected cell which is determined by the rowIndex and the columnIndex.

The following sections will demonstrate how to:

Freeze the Top Row
To freeze the top row, the selected cell should be the cell (2, 1) – “A2”. The following are the steps to freeze the top row using Spire.XLS for .NET.
- Create a Workbook object.
- Load an Excel file using Workbook.LoadFromFile() method.
- Get a specific worksheet through Workbook.Worksheets[sheetIndex] property.
- Freeze the top row by passing (2, 1) to the Worksheet.FreezePanes(int rowIndex, int columnIndex) method as the parameter.
- Save the workbook to another Excel file using Workbook.SaveToFile() method.
- C#
- VB.NET
using Spire.Xls;
namespace FreezeTopRow
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
//Create a Workbook instance
Workbook workbook = new Workbook();
//Load an Excel document
workbook.LoadFromFile(@"C:\Users\Administrator\Desktop\sample.xlsx");
//Get the first worksheet
Worksheet sheet = workbook.Worksheets[0];
//Freeze the top row
sheet.FreezePanes(2, 1);
//Save to another file
workbook.SaveToFile("FreezeTopRow.xlsx", ExcelVersion.Version2016);
}
}
}

Freeze the First Column
To freeze the first column, the selected cell should be the cell (1, 2) – “B1”. The following are the steps to freeze the first column using Spire.XLS for .NET.

- C#
- VB.NET
using Spire.Xls;
namespace FreezeFirstColumn
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
//Create a Workbook instance
Workbook workbook = new Workbook();
//Load an Excel document
workbook.LoadFromFile(@"C:\Users\Administrator\Desktop\sample.xlsx");
//Get the first worksheet
Worksheet sheet = workbook.Worksheets[0];
//Freeze the first column
sheet.FreezePanes(1, 2);
//Save to another file
workbook.SaveToFile("FreezeFirstColumn.xlsx", ExcelVersion.Version2016);
}
}
}
