c++ reading in excel files

[Ram09]

just wondering if anybody knows if and where I could find a excel reader for c++. I have spreadsheets which I would like to read in into my program, but I also have cells which are formulas, so I'm looking for a reasonably priced excel reader. anybody know??

So you want to read the formulas from the cells? Is that it? I don't quite understand what you're meaning exactly.

But if you just want to see a worksheet, you should be able to insert an OLE ibject of Excel type. When your form runs, double click it, and pressing ctrl-~ shows formulas. This is in VB 6, so I assume VC++ has it if you're using Visual.

because the information I have is in excel files (and I'm using Dev C++) I want to take out the information... and if there were something I would have to do special when encountering a formula in a cell ex. SUM(C1,C3) or something like that... where it shows a number in excel but it is really a formula, just wondering how to read that in the C++ program

Also, I've heard of programs that are made to read/write to and from excel files, just can't seem to find them.
