string Exceldb = Server.MapPath("UpLoaded_Files/") + inpfilename;
string strConn;
strConn = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0; Data Source=" + Exceldb + ";" + "Extended Properties=Excel 8.0;";
//You must use the $ after the object you reference in the spreadsheet
OleDbDataAdapter myCommand = new OleDbDataAdapter("SELECT * FROM [Sheet1$]", strConn);

myCommand.Fill(myDataSet, "ExcelInfo");
GridView1.DataSource = myDataSet.Tables["ExcelInfo"].DefaultView;
