Saving a file with Slicers using Aspose Makes the file unsavable

Aspose.Cells Product Family
1

Hi There,
I am using Aspose.Cell version 26.1.0.

Attached are 2 files: slicers-original.xlsx, slicers-saved.xlsx.

slicers-saved.zip (8.6 MB)
slicers-original.zip (8.5 MB)

In our coded we use Aspose.Cells to save the file ‘slicers-original.xlsx’ to a different location.
The output is a an xlsx file (slicers-saved.xlsx), that cannot be saved.
When we open that file and try to save, excel crashes and the file was not saved.
Removing the slicers solves the issue.

var stream = new FileStream(
filePath,
FileMode.Create,
FileAccess.ReadWrite,
FileShare.ReadWrite
);
var saveFormat = FileFormatUtil.FileFormatToSaveFormat(workbook.FileFormat);
await workbook.SaveAsync(stream, saveFormat);

Please advise,
Thanks,
Shlomi

You’re seeing that a workbook saved with Aspose.Cells 26.1.0, which contains slicers, causes Excel to crash when you try to save the file.

Thanks for providing the sample files—they will help us reproduce the issue. To investigate further, could you let us know:

  • How the workbook is loaded and whether any changes are made to the slicers or other objects before calling SaveAsync?
  • The version of Excel and the operating system you use when the saved file crashes.
  • The .NET runtime/target framework you are building against (e.g., .NET 6, .NET Framework 4.8).

With this information we can try to reproduce the problem on our side and determine the next steps.
