This is not a good question - we cannot work out from that little what you are trying to do.
Remember that we can't see your screen, access your HDD, or read your mind.
Why can you read them?
What is happening when you try?
Any errors? Anything happen at all?

See Reading Excel-file using Oledb - treating content of excel file as Text only[^]. It mainly says: add the following in the Extended Properties: HDR=NO;TypeGuessRows=0;ImportMixedTypes=Text
