xlsread certain range of rows

Hi,
I have a very large excel file. When I used xlsread command it took very long time to read entire range. Therefore, I want to read just a part of it.
Column: Same as xlsread.
Row: 1:10000.
When I tried, xlsread(File,sheet,'1:1000'), it read all columns of 10645(?). However, I want to read the range of columns that xlsread loads automatically. I just want to cut off certain range of rows. Deleting rows after loading whole data is not an option because it took too much time.
Thank you.

You can enter any rectangular range argument to xlsread in Excel A1:X200 syntax. You must, however, know the ranges of interest this way. Or, create a named area in the spreadsheet that comprises the area of interest. It must also be contiguous, hence rectangular.

"How" is more an Excel question than Matlab; xlsread is an m-file that does only a bunch of input verification/error-checking then calls the actual worker-functions that are either .mex or .m program files (hence source not viewable) that do all the hard work. Here's the list for R2014b; none of these m-files are human-readable to see just what they actually do.

XLSREAD is a black-box for the end-user community; if you want more abilities you'll have to resort to COM/Active-X yourself or write VBA code on the Excel side or such.
The better solution is probably to have the wanted data written to a file on the side creating the Excel file in a more readily-accessible form for input.

The best solution would be to avoid using a propriety format like excel, and store the data in a file that is designed for storing and transferring data.
