I use xls.rb which works great with Excel. see https://github.com/bash0C7/XLS Its old, but allows range names to be used in the calls so as your data sets grow or add columns you're not updating code only the excel sheet. It delivers a nice hash array. where myExcel[1].fetch('Login') would return the value I want without regard to column or row index
