What do you want to do with the data? (Present a table, change or create geometry,....)
To access Excel (setq exl (vlax-get-or-create-object "Excel.application"))
If you want to focus on a more specific loaded version, the progid may need to be more specific.
If the workbook is loaded, then you need to drill down to the range data you need
Each object's properties and methods can be listed by using:
(vlax-dump-object <object, e.g. exl> t)
At the top is the application object, then the workbook (or workbook collection), then the sheet collection, then the sheet, then the range, etc.
To present a table, it is much easier to use either OLE or a datalink.
