Is there a way to programmatically query the cell contents for a range?

[RyleySill93]

How can I get the cell contents for the highlighted range here? I'd expect something back like `[[9.82, 7.57],[155, 296]]`. The "cellSelectionChanged" event only returns the coordinates of the selected range, not their actual contents. Since I can copy these values directly out of the spreadsheet viewer instance, I'd expect to be able to get them some other way?

ah I see - @AMBudnik Do you know if handsontable has a recommended alternative approach for rendering excel files?

[AMBudnik]

There's no built-in plugin or logic for importing Excel files to Handsontable. We operate on JSON files only (as a file type for data load).
Our clients are using some XLSX > JSON parsers from Github, but I need to know which of those are recommended. If you only need raw data (without styling and data types) a parser might be a good idea. Otherwise, you'd need to adjust the types of columns (via columns setup) and apply needed styling/formatting separately. If you'd like to have a quick chat about it please contact us at support@handsontable.com
