    reading excel files...

    Hey! I need help! How can I read information from an excel file into my c/c++ code? I'm using mingw as compiler through msys. Any recomended websites or information would be great!

    For starters, do you know how to use fstream? If not, then read http://www.daniweb.com/techtalkforum...2&page=1&pp=15
    I don't have excel so I can't help you in that respect, sorry.

    You can probably get the file format at http://www.wotsit.org. I have heard of an API floating around somewhere.
