If you need to manipulate the data once you open it and do anything with the
worksheets, than you are probably going to have to use COM. However, if you
just need to open it up and read in data and possibly write it back, then

Have a look at products like "ExcelRW" (part of the Syncfusion
Essential Suite):

100% native code, no COM interop, no nothing...
