Dataflows - Make entity - Connect to Excel

I try to make a Dataflow where I make an entitiy from a local Excel table. I understand that I need to make a Gateway. I did this. What shall I use for username and password. It comes up with domain\alias as a suggestion. I thougt it should be an easy case to get hold of tables in an excelfile but it is not. If any have any suggestion I will appreciate it.ExcelSource.png
