    You could try and write some simple python using the pyexcel and pandas libraries. I created a tool as a consultant with these packages that parsed spreadsheets with data from factories from all around the world. They did not lock down the Excel files used to submit data and it made it so much harder. If you go this route, I would recommend starting by putting your data into a SQLite database. Once you have your data in a database, you unlock the power of SQL for pulling reports. Also, you can port the data into a proper database if you ever need to. ChatGPT can probably get you a good chunk of the way there.
