I am trying to do that by using OleDb but the file is protected by a password which i dont have. So it gives the following error when i open the connection:
Cannot update. Database or object is read-only.
How can i solve this?
thanks
You need to specify your UserId and Password in your Connection String same as with a SQL connection. Unfortunately, this means that you’ll have to get the password.
If you can’t get the password, you might be able to open the spreadsheet in Read-Only mode and copy the data from it into a new spreadsheet and read that one…
