HI! all I am creating .xls spreadsheet file using following code

using (OleDbConnection conn = new OleDbConnection("Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=C:\\temp.xls;Extended Properties='Excel 8.0;HDR=Yes'"))
{
    conn.Open();
    OleDbCommand cmd = new OleDbCommand("CREATE TABLE [NewSheet] ([Column1] string, [Column2] string)", conn);
    cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
}

but i am getting an exception at cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();

Exception is: Cannot modify the design of table 'NewSheet'. It is in a read-only database.
