* Introduction *
================
This project is the .NET port of POI project. With NPOI, you can read/write Excel and Word files easily. It has a wide application.
For example, you can use it a to generate a Excel report without Microsoft Office suite installed on your
server and more efficient than call Microsoft Excel ActiveX at background; you can also use it to extract
text from Office documents to help you implement full-text indexing feature (most of time this feature is
used to create search engines).
=========================
* Nissl Introduction *
=========================
NPOI was used to be maintained by Neuzilla ( Tony's first startup company). After Neuzilla is closed in 2018, Nissl Lab maintains NPOI.
