Working with Excel

Hi Robert, here you have a bit:

Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Application app = new
Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Application();

Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Workbook book = null; //to access to book
Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Worksheet sheet = null; //to access to sheet
Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Range range = null; //to access to a range of
data "A1:B2"
book = app.Workbooks.Open("c:\\test.xls", Missing.Value, Missing.Value,
Missing.Value, Missing.Value, Missing.Value, Missing.Value, Missing.Value,
Missing.Value, Missing.Value, Missing.Value, Missing.Value, Missing.Value,
Missing.Value, Missing.Value);

sheet = (Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Worksheet)book.Wor ksheets.get_Item[1];

range = sheet.get_Range("A1","B5");

Only take care about release resources from excel. Use ReleaseComObject
foreach com object that you use.

System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.ReleaseComO bject(range);
System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.ReleaseComO bject(sheet);
System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.ReleaseComO bject(book);
System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.ReleaseComO bject(app);

Hope this helps.
Regards.
