[Feature Request] Offer a string based parsing to ArcTable #389

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

In the near future we will start restoring Excel compatibility within Swate. Dues to the behavior of the Excel API using the standard FsSpreadsheet reader is not feasible, nor performant.

Describe the solution you'd like

I would like to have an aPI level which works on string sequences, for example tableHeaders = #seq<string>, tableValues = #seq<#seq<string>>. Excel API should be able to work both column or row based, so no specific requirement there.
