What's your code? Note, that we can NOT read in your mind or direct from your screen.

"... its throwing exception"

And you didn't think we'd need to know the details of the exception, or see the code that causes it?

I'd suggest to use ADO.NET[^] + OLEDB provider[^] then you'll be able to connect to MS Excel file, fetch data into DataTable[^] object and finally dump it into database.
