RE: [PHP] Is there any Possible Way to get data from Excel File?
How about using COM? http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.com.php I haven't used this personally but perhaps it could be a useful solution. However there may be issues like running a copy of EXCEL on the server.

Anything is possible :) I'd recommend that the Excell file be exported as a CSV, which will be a LOT easier to munch through, because it won't contain formatting, or anything else.

I think that the smartest way to insert data from Excel to mySQL is saving Excel file as CSV and then inserting the whole file. This is ofcourse only if you wan't to insert the whole file.
