Why are you looking for a different api?
ASKER
The current api is not free one , i am using the trial version.

This really works nice, but it uses DOM will it be good if there is large amount of data in CSV file,
I mean how will be the performance?
and one more thing is in CSV file if I have the blank values for columns the XML is not proper it takes the next column value.

You could turn it into text printing if you're worried about the performance. The other issue sounds like you need to do a bugfix
ASKER
Ya I have fixed other issues, also I will test for large data.Thank you for your support.
ASKER
Thank you
