Connect to an Excel / CSV file in Talend Open Studio for Data Quality?

[Anonymous]

Hi all data gurus,
I have finally installed Talend Open Studio for Data Quality and got it running (after a lot of confusions on JDK and Environment Variables  ). 
Now I am really finding it difficult to figure out how to make a connection to an excel spreadsheet or a CSV file to do some data checking. Can someone please shade some light into it? I mean is there any way I can import an excel file and do some data quality analysis please? I read somewhere that it requires some ODBC connection, but there are no instructions in that.
Thanks in advance.
Cheers.

ODBC connections will not be supported anymore with Java 8:  https://blogs.oracle.com/Lance/entry/removal_of_the_jdbc_odbc
Java 7 is getting at its end of life: https://www.java.com/en/download/faq/java_7.xml
I advise that you export your data in csv file or, even better in a database, and that you profile this file/table.
