How to update a specific column in Sharepoint list from MS Excel? - sharepoint

I have 50 rows of information in sharepoint list. I have downloaded the excel of the sharepoint list and I delinked it. So any changes in the excel is not automatically updated in sharepoint list.
Sharepoint list is updated by many users. Now I have updated a particular column in excel and I want these information to be updated in sharepoint from excel.
I have common columns in sharepoint and excel however since the sharepoint is updated by other users, information in other columns in excel file need not to be updated in sharepoint.
So I want to update specific column in excel to sharepoint list.
I tried to link the excel file but since the sharepoint is already updated, I dont want to mess up things.

How to programmatically create a list from an excel spreadsheet in SharePoint 2010?

I want to create a list from an excel spreadsheet in SharePoint 2010. When a new Excel document is uploaded to a SharePoint library, a corresponding list will be created automatically. Is this possible?
You can do this in two phases:
Create an empty MS Access database and import your excel sheet into it (in MS access go to External data -> Excel, choose your file and follow the steps to import it.
When you get the MS access table with the data from excel sheet, right click the table name in Tables section and go to Export -> SharePoint list. There you can specify the url of your SharePoint site and the name of the new list. Click Ok and wait until the list is created and the data is uploaded to SharePoint.
EDIT:
Since this needs to be done automatically (as stated in comments), this is the high overview of the things that needs to be done, with some useful links:
Create Event receiver for the library that the excel files will be uploaded to.
In the ItemAdded Method write the code that will do the following:
Get the uploaded file
Parse the excel file using the OpenXml library
Create the list in the SharePoint site, based on the columns taken from the excel file
Loop through all the rows in the excel file and insert the list item for each excel row.
