This is the code I'm using to read an xls file:

Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Application excelApp = new Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Application();
Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Workbook excelWorkbook = excelApp.Workbooks.Open(filePath, 0, true, 5, "", "", true, Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.XlPlatform.xlWindows, "\t", false, false, 0, true, 1, 0);
Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Sheets excelSheets = excelWorkbook.Worksheets;
Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Worksheet excelSheet = (Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Worksheet)excelSheets.get_Item(1);

MessageBox.Show(excelSheet.Cells[1,1].ToString());

Which results in a message box with:

System.__ComObject

Not sure what's going on, I'd really appreciate any help, thanks!
