I've never tried using PHP with anything other than MySQL, but won't
PHP connect to ODBC sources? ODBC certainly has an Excel driver and a
quick search turned up http://phplens.com/phpeverywhere/node/view/9 -
which looks to have a reference to DNS-less connections (but I didn't
check to see whether that included Excel).
