reading from MS Excel Spreadsheet

[sts1000]

I am trying to convert an MS Excel Spreadsheet to a 2D array.  I was wondeing if there was a simpler way to do it other than using a lot of property nodes to activate each cell and 2 for loops to copy them.  The other problem I am having is that I want to select only certain columns and rows to be copied.
