If I understood your queston correctly, you need to add an 'Excel-Sheet control' to your Toolbox. And, on drag-drop the toolbox to your Web-Page or Win-Form, it should show a an Excel Sheet (Cells) control, on to which you can bind data. If this is your situation, there is a 3rd party application called: SpreadSheetGear (http://www.spreadsheetgear.com/). This is paid software. But, you can use it for a 30-day trial period. I had used this software 6 months. And it is the best in the market.

Else, if you are looking for solution to load the contents of an Excel sheet into a DataControl like: GridView, here is an article for your reference: (http://www.4guysfromrolla.com/articles/022708-1.aspx and http://www.4guysfromrolla.com/articles/030508-1.aspx)

Hope this helps.

Hello,
You can create 2 types of controls.

1. Custom Controls, which we usually use in our project, with *.ascx extension

2. Server Control, this is what we usually call as Third party control like RadToolkit controls, ajaxtoolkit control, etc
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/zt27tfhy.aspx

Please find the above listed links, for getting started with your exact requirement.

Hope this helps.
Happy developing :)
