This is a C++ language only newsgroup. You'd best ask this in a MS specific
newsgroup, microsoft.public.*

No, there is not. However, if you go to http://www.wotsit.org you'll
find some interesting information on excel files. In particular, this
may interest you, http://chicago.sourceforge.net/

Write it in Excel as a CSV file. This is a simple text-based format
which can be read by std::ifstream. Each line of text is a row,
each ';'-separated string a field from that row.

Formatting etcetera will be lost, of course.

HTH,
