DSFileConverterApi

Purpouse

On many occasions we find ourselves with the need to convert files to and from excel and for this we need to install the office dll.

This api has been co-developed with a command line utility "DSFileConverter" to solve this problem.

You don't need to have Office or any other external dependencies for this.
