using Syncfusion.XlsIO;
using System.IO;
using System.Reflection;
 
namespace XlsIO_Supports_TSV
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            using (ExcelEngine excelEngine = new ExcelEngine())
            {
                //Instantiate the excel application object.
                IApplication application = excelEngine.Excel;
 
                //The workbook is opened.
                IWorkbook workbook;
 
                //Open existing workbook with data entered
                Assembly assembly = typeof(Program).GetTypeInfo().Assembly;
                Stream fileStream = assembly.GetManifestResourceStream("XlsIO_Supports_TSV.Sample.xlsx");
 
                workbook = application.Workbooks.Open(fileStream, ExcelOpenType.Automatic);
 
                //The first worksheet object in the worksheets collection is accessed.
                IWorksheet worksheet = workbook.Worksheets[0];
 
                //Saving the workbook as TSV file
                Stream stream = File.Create("Output.tsv");
                workbook.SaveAs(stream, "\t");
                stream.Close();
 
                //Re-Opening the saved TSV file
                workbook = application.Workbooks.Open("Output.tsv");
 
                //Saving the workbook as xlsx file
                stream = File.Create("Output.xlsx");
                workbook.SaveAs(stream);           
            }
        }
    }
}
