As far as I'm aware (someone on the list will correct if I'm wrong)
you cannot do this in either 1.1.4 or 2.0Beta releases.

One thing you can do is save the spreadsheet file as a delimited file
then import into mysql using sql statements.

Data entry is easier if a form is constructed, but don't think you can
simply import from a spreadsheet into mysql.
