In this tutorial, we explore using IronXL to access Excel files without relying on interop. The process begins by loading an Excel file into a workbook object, demonstrated with a sample file named 'sample.xlsx'. The tutorial focuses on accessing a specific worksheet, titled '2022 budget', using the get worksheet method. This allows users to interact directly with the data within the selected worksheet. To extract a single cell's value, the tutorial shows how to access cell A5 and convert its value to a string for console output. For retrieving multiple cell values, a loop is used with the range function to specify a range, such as B2 to B10. Iterating over this range with a for-each loop efficiently prints each cell's value to the console. This method is particularly useful for accessing and displaying multiple values from an Excel worksheet. The tutorial concludes by running the program to display all extracted values, highlighting IronXL's capabilities for Excel data handling.
