Even in my VFP application I am changing all configurations and meta data from DBF to XML (to make everything more .NET-compatible).

For my purposes a good way would be to save an Excel spreadsheet in a format that .net can read. csv, xml, json.
Only csv is available in Excel. Maybe a vba script to save as json?
Just came across this library:
