ODF .NET - It works for c# and you can read and write.
Says like this on there page:
ODF .NET allows you to write applications to create, modify and parse text documents and spreadsheets. Supports all versions of .NET Framework, .NET Compact Framework and Mono.
If you want to work directly against a headless OpenOffice/LibreOffice instance to manipulate the spread sheets, you are going to need to use OpenOffice/LibreOffice component interface UNO. This is a bit of a pain because of the casts that are required in strongly typed languages (UNO has bindings for many languages), deny you of the tooling you would expect unless you find a C# OpenOffice set of wrapper classes. There are other frameworks to manipulate the document but to work with it via OpenOffice directly this is the only way.
Here is some example code of someone creating an xls spread sheet with c#: Use OpenOffice Uno CLI with C# to create a spreadsheet
Here is the OpenOffice UNO reference: http://www.openoffice.org/api/docs/java/ref/overview-summary.html
You should have a look at the GemBox.Spreadsheet
component from GemBox that supports XLSX, XLS, CSV, ODS or HTML file format.
There's both a free and a paid version of it.
