Question Help create database using excel as back-end

[skibrahim]

Help needed. :worked_till_5am:
I need to create an exam database for my college which will store the marks of students alongside their name and roll no.. They want the back-end to be strictly Excel. I did a similar project 3 years back but that was in Visual Basic 6 with MS Access as back-end using ADO. I'm new to VB.Net and I've absolutely no idea what to do. Considering me to be a newbie, can anyone please give me the details on how to :
1. Create excel file from the application itself (the application will have a "Create a new database" option),
2. View a previously created excel file within the form and edit or delete it.
