You can already do this with VB.NET through Excel automation: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/office/troubleshoot/office-developer/automate-excel-from-visual-basic-net

There's also various libraries out there that can do it without Excel automation. I think I used EPPlus back in the day.

Regardless though, this isn't on-topic for this repo.
