reading data from excel file

HI,

I want to read data from excel file and export this data to dataset. I
know abt the basics of opening a file using application, workbook and
worksheet classes. But i don't know how to read data from the excel
file to populate it into the dataset. I think i have to use the class
Range. Can any one explain how to do it ?????????????

Thank YOU

The basics are here:

I'd avoid importing the COM library (Microsoft Office 10.0 or similar) if
possible.

You should be able to get it all with an OLEDB driver.

I have two(2) issues. I'm experiencing a little difficulty and having to resort to a work around. I already found one bug, although stated the bug was only in ODBC, which I'm not using. It appears to be in the OLEDB driver also. My connection was: conn.Open "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=" & strPath & ";" & "Extended Properties='Text;HDR=NO;FMT=Delimited'"

I've just discovered a bug in some code I wrote a little while ago, and I need you guys' help to fix it. My program imports data from a standard Excel Spreadsheet (just with specific column headers). I used ODBC in my VB.NET program to read that spreadsheet into a dataset, to make it easy to manipulate. The code I use to read it is as the bottom of this posting.
