What I have tried:

C#
using Excel;
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;
using System.IO;
using System.Text;
using System.Windows.Forms;

namespace myproject
{
    public partial class Form1 : Form
    {
        public Form1()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
        }

        DataSet result;

        private void btnopen_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            using (OpenFileDialog opfd = new OpenFileDialog() { Filter = "Excel Workbook|*.xlsx", ValidateNames = true })
            {
                if (opfd.ShowDialog() == DialogResult.OK)
                {
                    FileStream fs = File.Open(opfd.FileName, FileMode.Open, FileAccess.Read);
                    IExcelDataReader reader = ExcelReaderFactory.CreateBinaryReader(fs);
                    reader.IsFirstRowAsColumnNames = true;
                    result = reader.AsDataSet();
                    Sheetname.Items.Clear();
                    foreach (DataTable dt in result.Tables)
                        Sheetname.Items.Add(dt.TableName);
                    reader.Close();
                }
            }
        }

        {

    }

Start by using the debugger to find out exactly where the problem is:
Put a breakpoint on the first line in the function, and run your code through the debugger. Then look at your code, and at your data and work out what should happen manually. Then single step each line checking that what you expected to happen is exactly what did. When it isn't, that's when you have a problem, and you can back-track (or run it again and look more closely) to find out why.

The problem is probably something to do with your file system or your app having the file open already, but without the error message and the exact line it occurs on we can't even begin to guess what will cure it! So use the debugger, check all the variable contents, and see what you can find.
If you can't spot the problem from that, then come back to us with actual information and we'll see what we can do - but we don;t have access to your file system, and you need your app running to find the problem.

tq for the answer :)
You are using the wrong reader type: Using IExcelDataReader[^].
