First of all we are declaring the ODBC namespace which we will use an Excel DNS;
using System.Data.Odbc;
then we will write these codes for connecting to a specific Excel file;
String strConn = @"Dsn=Excel Files;dbq=excel_file_path;defaultdir=excel_file_dir;driverid=1046;maxbuffersize=2048;pagetimeout=5";
OdbcConnection objConn = new OdbcConnection(strConn);
objConn.Open();
OdbcDataAdapter adp = new OdbcDataAdapter("select * from [Sheet1$]", objConn);
DataSet ds = new DataSet();
adp.Fill(ds);
dataGridView1.DataSource = ds.Tables[0];
objConn.Close();
Thats all by using these codes you have got the datas you wanted to...
Cheers;)
