# Other Settings Imported from Spread COM Files

Learn about the key differences between Spread COM and Spread.NET settings for seamless import and transition.

## Content

Spread COM and Spread.NET have other differences that are handled during import of a Spread COM file, as described in the following table.

| **Setting** | **Difference** | **How Imported** |
| ------- | ---------- | ------------ |
| ActiveSheet | Spread.NET uses ActiveSheetIndex. | This property is not imported. |
| ClipboardOptions property settings | Spread.NET offers fewer settings than Spread COM for its ClipboardOptions property. | The Spread COM settings are ignored; you must reset this property in Spread.NET. |
| ColHidden | Spread.NET offers the Column.Visible property (or SheetView.ColumnVisible), which is the inverse of the ColHidden property. | The Spread COM setting is imported and interpreted for the new Visible property. For example, for a column in Spread COM if the ColHidden property was set to True, in Spread.NET, the Visible property is set to False. |
| Print properties | Spread.NET uses different properties. | These settings are not imported. |
| TwoDigitYearMax property setting | Spread.NET sets this as a cell‑level property rather than a component‑level property. | The Spread COM setting is ignored; you must reset this property in Spread.NET. |
