read.any(path, folder = NULL, sheet = 1, do.time = FALSE,
  min.acceptable.date = "1-1-1900", max.acceptable.date = "12-31-2100",
  nastrings = bc::nastrings)

`path`	Path to file within a folder, or full path.
`folder`	Folder to look for path in, if applicable.
`sheet`	If an excel file, the sheet to load.
`do.time`	Allow processing to time values.
`min.acceptable.date`	Set to NULL to ignore. Sometimes numbers are assumed to be excel-formatted. One way to prevent this is to set min/max acceptable dates to help the conversion know if something is a meaningful data or not.
`max.acceptable.date`	Set to NULL to ignore. Sometimes numbers are assumed to be excel-formatted. One way to prevent this is to set min/max acceptable dates to help the conversion know if something is a meaningful data or not.
