ExcelOleDb.cs

/*
 * Dependency: Office 2007

 * Install 2007 Office System Driver - Data Connectivity Components from http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?FamilyID=7554F536-8C28-4598-9B72-EF94E038C891&displaylang=en
 * No references or anything needed to be added.
 * 
 * Other Notes:
 * 1. There is a 64-bit version too. But I am using the 32-bit one.
 * 2. For Office 2010. there is a 'Microsoft Access Database Engine 2010 Redistributable' at http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?FamilyID=C06B8369-60DD-4B64-A44B-84B371EDE16D
 * 3. I am Using OLEDB here. ODBC can also be used.
 * 4. Code to read excel from http://www.dreamincode.net/forums/blog/1267/entry-3238-c%23-and-mvc3-uploading-and-parsing-an-excel-document-is-easier-than-it-seems/
 * 5. Code to read worskeets from http://www.codeproject.com/KB/aspnet/getsheetnames.aspx
 * 
 * I am doing two tasks here:
 * 1. Displaying all worksheet names from the XLSX file
 * 2. Echo the data from the file in CSV format
 */

/*
 * How to tweak the code
 * 
 * You will have to change the path to the xlsx file and specify the worksheet name. Where? Read the comments as you go through the code.
