  Hello Team,

  In my project while import/export any file/data(xls,xlsx or pdf) we will convert into bytes and then import/export to the folder and the extension for the file import /export used is .rbwt. So can we convert the byte array to data in angular , so that we can export an excel file? We are using wijmo grid in angular.

  Thanks.

  Regards,

  Hi Nivisha,

  The FlexGrid can only import xlsx format (or pdf) and export the data to excel in xlsx format (or pdf). It cannot work with a byte array. But, if you need to use a byte array in your application, you will need to convert it into a string. You can try the solution from the following StackOverflow link:

  HI Nivisha,

  Only xlsx and CSV can be imported into FlexGrid and xlsx, CSV, and pdf can be exported.
