I've done kind of what your asking quite a few times. What I do is save
the file as a csv. Then you can just import it right into mysql. I do
this for 2 different applications that I wrote. If you need more help
just ask.

Subject: Excel Spreadsheet as a datasource
Has anyone successfully used an Excel spreadsheet as a datasource? I
realize that it is a flimsy datasource but I have a need to quickly and
dynamically take the information stored in spreadsheets and manipulate
the data and write them to a SQL database.
I would be grateful for any assistance or information on how to do this.
Thanks,
Ron
