• I don't know how to do it.

Which part of it ?
The sample loops over cells.
All that is left is to compare string?

Why did you try so far, please show some code

@mrjj All i have is only an excel file. I did not understand why and where zip file is needed here ?

@Beemaneni-Bala-0
The excel file (XLSX) is actually a zip file.
Do you try to give it an old binary format ?
what is the extension of the file?

@mrjj Here is the code snipped . I need to just read an excel file here. i am using linux machine here and i can open excel file using libreoffice

void MainWindow::readExcelFile(QString excelSheetFile){
    QXlsx::Document xlsx("ExcelSheet.xlsx");

    qDebug()<<xlsx.read("A1");
    qDebug()<<xlsx.read("A2");
    qDebug()<<xlsx.read("A3");
    qDebug()<<xlsx.read("A4");
    qDebug()<<xlsx.read("A5");
    qDebug()<<xlsx.read("A6");
    qDebug()<<xlsx.read("A7");

    for (int row=1; row<10; ++row) {
        qDebug()<<"Row No : "<<row << xlsx.cellAt(row, 1);
        if (QXlsx::Cell *cell=xlsx.cellAt(row, 1))
            qDebug()<< "Cell Data: "  << cell->value();
    }
}

Hi
and the file is indeed an xlsx and not the old xls `?
The file you give it, excelSheetFile
Else convert it with libreOffice

@mrjj Thanks a lot for the information. I had renamed the file to xlsx. That was the issue. After converting using libreoffice it works and i can fetch information.
