If you give the client an OpenOffice spreadsheet, the data is already
stored in XML and you may only need a minor transformation with XSLT to
get it into a format that you want for for your flash backend.
OpenOffice is free and looks a lot like Excel .
If your client will only deal with Excel, you can read the Excel
spreadsheet with OpenOffice, save it as an OpenOffice spreadsheet and
continue the process.
We used this to build a searchable database of Personal Protective
Equipment for First Responders that ran without any server(police cars
and firetrucks do not generally have their own on board servers.).

Hi,
I have designed a website in flash with a xml backend. All the products are
called from the xml datasheet. Now the client wants a simpler way of updating
the site. He finds xml difficult to work on.
How can i map an xls to the xml backend. ie the client will update the xls file
& upload it. From there the xml should read the xls file and update the site.
Is that possible. Pls do help if anyone knows the solution or codes to do it.
Thanks.
Regards,
Kedar Mehendale
