Example error message

Error during SpreadsheetOpen( "C:\Users\Sally\Documents\Models\Test.xlsx", backend: 'LibXl' ): Permission denied.

Description

Occurs when LibXl attempts to read a spreadsheet file. The reason reported by the library appears following the colon, in the example here it was because the process didn't have the required permissions to read it.

In other cases, the error might indicate that a file requested isn't actually a valid Excel spreadsheet format, etc.

Note that LibXl reads *.xlsx of *.xls files only -- not csv formats or other Excel formats.
