Anything is possible when you can write code. Google for c# excel and you'll find lots of examples. Or be more specific and perhaps we can be too.

You can treat a spreadsheet like it was a table in a database:

Excel connection strings - ConnectionStrings.com[^]

There are many other sources for connection strings.

Look up C#'s ODBC and ADO connection objects.

One hint I can supply to you: this works much better if the data in the spreadsheet is laid out nicely (like a table in a database) and not as though columns weren't typed.
