Saving excel contents to an array variable

Hi,
I am trying to learn to save contents of column from an excel file, say column ‘A’ into an array variable. Can anyone help me with the syntax please. Thank you.

  1. Use Read Column activity to read the desired column data from excel. The result will be IEnumerable
  2. Convert the result to array by using Cast method. The result will be array of Strings.
    ReadColumnResult.Cast(of String)().ToArray()
