This demo project uses Aspose.Cells for .NET, Aspose.Words for .NET and about 1200 lines of custom code to convert Microsoft Excel workbooks to Microsoft Word documents.

Using this project, you can convert from any load format supported by Aspose.Cells (XLS, OOXML XLSX, SpreadsheetML, CSV and tab delimited) to any save format supported by Aspose.Words (DOC, OOXML DOCX, RTF, WordprocessingML, HTML, PDF).

I find quality of conversion is quite good, although the project has its limitations. In the zip file you will find a spreadsheet detailing what features are converted. We continue working on this project and you are welcome to request new features in the support forums and check for updates here.

The project demonstrates a variety of useful techniques when programming with Aspose components.

Here are some sample screenshots of original XLS and generated DOC files.

Budget Plan XLS and Generated DOC

Plans for next version:

• Doc2Xls - Word to Excel conversion
• Add VB.NET code
• Polish source code
• Make output non empty when using Aspose.Words in evaluation mode.

By the way, you really need to have a license for Aspose.Words (and preferably for Aspose.Cells too) to see any output at all. Aspose.Words in evaluation mode limits the output to several hundred paragraphs, but it does not cut in the middle of a table and therefore it appears like nothing is output. You can request a temporary license (get one for Aspose.Total) if you follow instructions at the top of this page.
