Hi Sateesh:
Eventhough I am a novice here, I did this just yesterday and it worked.
The trick is to use a JDBC-ODBC bridge(JDBC API).
1.Go to the control panel of you Win98/NT and double-click ODBC icon.
2.Click on Add
3.Select the MS Excel ODBC and click OK
4.Write the name of your excel file and add a description
5.Follow the rest of the instructions till finish.
.
.
.
11.Using the JDBC API write an application to connect to your excel file.
You can use SQL commants in your application to manipulate your database as
usual.
I hope this answers your question.
Have fun!!
Eric
