I am getting below error.
Only '.xls' and '.xlsx' format is supported in reading excel file while error is ' at NPOI.HSSF.UserModel.HSSFWorkbook.GetWorkbookDirEntryName(DirectoryNode directory)
at NPOI.HSSF.UserModel.HSSFWorkbook..ctor(DirectoryNode directory, Boolean preserveNodes)
at Microsoft.DataTransfer.ClientLibrary.ExcelUtility.GetExcelWorkbook(String fileExtension, TransferStream stream)'.
The supplied spreadsheet seems to be Excel 5.0/7.0 (BIFF5) format.
