这是我在Excel 2003中使用的:

Dictionary<string, string> props = new Dictionary<string, string>();
props["Provider"] = "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0";
props["Data Source"] = repFile;
props["Extended Properties"] = "Excel 8.0";

StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
foreach (KeyValuePair<string, string> prop in props)
{
    sb.Append(prop.Key);
    sb.Append('=');
    sb.Append(prop.Value);
    sb.Append(';');
}
string properties = sb.ToString();

using (OleDbConnection conn = new OleDbConnection(properties))
{
    conn.Open();
    DataSet ds = new DataSet();
    string columns = String.Join(",", columnNames.ToArray());
    using (OleDbDataAdapter da = new OleDbDataAdapter(
        "SELECT " + columns + " FROM [" + worksheet + "$]", conn))
    {
        DataTable dt = new DataTable(tableName);
        da.Fill(dt);
        ds.Tables.Add(dt);
    }
}

不是免费的，但是在最新的Office中有一个非常好的自动化。net API。(有一个API已经有很长一段时间了，但是讨厌的COM)你可以在代码中做任何你想要/需要的事情，而Office应用程序仍然是隐藏的后台进程。

ExcelMapper是一个开源工具(http://code.google.com/p/excelmapper/)，可用于将Excel工作表作为强类型对象读取。它同时支持xls和xlsx格式。

接受。io电子表格将为您做这个工作，并且不收费。看看这个。

    {
        DataTable dt = new DataTable(tableName);
        da.Fill(dt);
        ds.Tables.Add(dt);
    }
}

var fileName = string.Format("{0}\\fileNameHere", Directory.GetCurrentDirectory());
var connectionString = string.Format("Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0; data source={0}; Extended Properties=Excel 8.0;", fileName);

var adapter = new OleDbDataAdapter("SELECT * FROM [workSheetNameHere$]", connectionString);
var ds = new DataSet();

adapter.Fill(ds, "anyNameHere");

DataTable data = ds.Tables["anyNameHere"];

这是我常用的。这有点不同，因为我通常在表的编辑处使用AsEnumerable():

var data = ds.Tables["anyNameHere"].AsEnumerable();

因为这让我使用LINQ从字段中搜索和构建结构。

var query = data.Where(x => x.Field<string>("phoneNumber") != string.Empty).Select(x =>
                new MyContact
                    {
                        firstName= x.Field<string>("First Name"),
                        lastName = x.Field<string>("Last Name"),
                        phoneNumber =x.Field<string>("Phone Number"),
                    });
