Hello, I have an Excel spreadsheet that is automatically updated with quotes. I am doing a project for my BS and I need to grab the information from this spreadsheet and populate a MySQL database. Any ideas on how to accomplish that with PHP? The spreadsheet uses a DDE feed to fetch information from a third party service and needs to be opened. I understand that I can do that with Java as well but if there is a way with PHP I prefer. Thanks, C.F.

Yep, you can upload an Excel spreadsheet and populate MySQL via php. These links might give you a start. http://www.weberdev.com/get_example-3591.html http://www.weberdev.com/get_example-1270.html As for DDE and third party service, I haven't a clue. tedd -- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- http://sperling.com
