Thanks Jay. Could anybody please tell me how to read the data from an excel file ? It should work independent of the operating system. I don't want the csv format. excel files aren't independent of the OS, csv files are. Excel files need to be parsed, because they contain heaps of formatting data. If you're using php on a windows OS, then you can use COM or .NET to read it in. On other systems however, you'll likely run into problems pretty quickly, and will most probably need to write your own parser routine
