Hi, I'm trying to figure out the best way to use Excel to upload data to a
MySQL database. I want to use Excel (rather than Access) because of its
general purpose edit and calc capability. I've seen reams of articles on how
to import FROM a database. But, I want to push TO a database. Is this
possible? If so, what is the best way?
By the way, I already know how to csv out a file and use Perl under *nix to
push it to the database. What I am looking for is a way to do this inside of
Excel. I already have a DSN set up for my MySQL ODBC driver connection and
can query the database from within Excel. Any pointers, articles, or book
references would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Chris
