I am trying not to use xlsread and switching my code to readtable so it doesn't need Microsoft Office.
The column I'm trying to read is Column C in the attached file, which is a sumation of all other columns, however when I do readtable (and all other variants readcell / readmatrix / readvars / xlsread in basic mode ) I get 0s for that column instead of the sum. I've tried all Name Value pair options and spreadsheetImportOptions as well.
A possible solution would be to add the columns in Matlab, but these are dynamic files created by another entity and I'd rather take their calculation in case it changes.
I also tried xlsread in basic mode, but the function call just hangs.

From Mathworks Support:
Unfortunately, as of now, there is no functionality to read the values of cells that are computed using formulas using MATLAB on Linux.
I have informed the Development Team about the possibility of having this kind of feature for Linux users so that they will consider including this functionality in a future release.
I will close this case for now. However, if you have any follow-up questions, please let me know and I will be happy to assist you further.

Response from Mathworks (not yet resolved as I can't use Excel / MS Office):
It is my understanding that you would like to read the values in column 'C' obtained by the formula defined in the Excel spreadsheet. Below, I have listed two ways you can achieve that:
1) Using the function "readtable" or "readmatrix" with the flag 'UseExcel'-true (to read the results after applying the formulas). The code snippet below reads column 'C' from row 14 to row 2000.
>> T = readtable('022020.xlsx','Range','C14:C2000','UseExcel',true);
I recommend that you use the flag 'UseExcel'-true for the specific columns containing formulas, since there is an overhead associated with this flag (importing may be slower).
2) The second option is to use a COM Automation server to access another application from MATLAB. This creates a user interface to access the data in a Microsoft Excel file.
The code snippet below shows an example of how to achieve this using the Excel file you shared with us:
>> ex = actxserver('Excel.Application'); % Run Excel in Automation Server
>> wb = ex.Workbooks.Open('C:\Users\full_path_to_your_file\022020.xlsx');% Open file
>> ws = wb.Worksheets.Item(1); % Select Sheet 1
>> data = ws.usedRange.Value; % Obtain the Value of the cells in Sheet 1
>> wb.Close(); % Close file
>> ex.Quit(); % Quit application
>> clear ex wb ws % clear variables
Please note that for the code snippet above to work, you must replace the path passed to "wb = ex.Workbooks.Open(...)" with your full path to the file. The variable "data" contains the information of the Excel sheet as a cell array. After importing the file to the variable "data" you can process it using MATLAB.
