Hi, For our own purposes I've created a C#/Win desktop app to export Excel files into a UTF8 encoded text file that can be referenced as an external table with UTF8 text columns. It also generates SQL to create that external table.
Would this tool be of interest for anyone? I could open source it and license it under MIT or something like that. We use it to import Excel data into Firebird more efficiently than with data pumps. It does need some polishing up. It tries to export all values as their text representations, but I think at least date and time values may come out in somewhat unexpected ways. It's also in Swedish at the moment, so that would need some work. Regards, Kjell Rilbe
