Answer 1

Try this: http://epplus.codeplex.com

EPPlus is a .net library that reads and writes Excel 2007/2010 files using the Open Office Xml format (xlsx).

Answer 2

If you are willing to commit yourself to a later version of Excel (2007+) you can also take a look at the OpenXML SDK. It's free, doesn't tie you to having MS Office installed on the machine it will be running on and there are quite a few resources available on how to use it online (including blogs from the OpenXML team).
