I am trying to locate a set of source code that would allow me to open and read the contents of an Excel file on Linux from within a C program.
I dont really want to link it to OpenOffice SDK if I can find something that just does these two things.

Check out XLSX I/O at https://sourceforge.net/projects/xlsxio/ It is a cross platform C library to read from and write to Excel .xslx files. Works on Windows, OS X, Linux and does not require Excel or Office to be installed. It is intended for sequential access to data in .xlsx files, so if it's only the values you are interested in this is what you need.
