Solution 1

You can read it directly via Application.Excel or by OLEDB, which would you prefer?

This may help[^]

It is very easy to do and a simple googling will answer your question.

Basically you use the interop to open a link to the excel app.
Then point to a cell or range you want to read and then copy (should that be what you want to do).

You need to add a reference to Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.

Dim oXL As Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Application
Dim oBook As Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Workbook
Dim oSheet As Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Worksheet
Dim vValue As Object

oXL = New Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Application
oBook = oXL.Workbooks.Open("c:\myFile.xls")
oSheet = oBook.Worksheets("Sheet1")
'Here you have cell value, just build a loop to get the data you want
vValue =oSheet.Cells(1, 1).Value 

myTextBox.Text = vValue
