Populating An Excel .csv File Rather As Well As MySQL
I am very new to this and have what may be a ridiculous question. Is there a way to have info populate both the MySQL table and an Excel .csv sheet? I know that I can go into PhpMyadmin and dump the data but this seems to be a bit cumbersome.

Excel File Imported Into MySQL
I have a Excel sheet, you can save this sheet as a wide range of extensions, the main one being .xls, but you can also do .txt tab delimited , html, .cvs, etc.... I'm very new to PHP and SQL. I'm trying to grab several columns of values, with like 200 rows. Each Column is labeled say - Model - Manufacturer - Name - Item # - Serial # etc... with each row under it displaying the info for that item. Is there any way I can take that excel sheet and import it into the MySQL database or PHP?? I'm very new, so a very detailed explanation would be of GREAT assistance. Thank you allot in advanced, this will save me 3 hours of work for something that might be done in 10 minutes.

Import Excel File Into MySQL Database
Importing an Excel file, containings URL, into a MySQL database. It must be the simplest process possible for the end user, avoiding as far as possible all steps of converting and/or transforming files. Of course, we want to preserve the identity of the URL.

Export MySQL Data To An Excel / CSV File
I've been trying to export MySQL data to an excel / CSV file, and I have it pretty much populating the Excel properly with the data; however, the Excel sheet also includes the entire HTML formatting + CSS/JS coding before the export code. I've tried getting rid of it with strip_tags, to no avail. Is it because the export code is to the middle of the file? I tried to move it into the header, but that didn't work either. Any ideas?

Populating Drop Down From MySQL

Populating Arrays From MySQL Query
I have the following code: http://pastebin.com/746601 The field 'material' in 'is_material' contains multiple values for each record in 'is_details'. Because of this I have used 'is_material_lookup' as a reference lookup table containing the 'style_code' and 'material_code' which refer to their full details in the respective tables. Currently I have got the script outputting all the details and one material then in the next block of data, repeating the details with a different material. What I would like to achieve is having 1 block of data with a list of all materials in that, instead of the repeat, but sadly I can't know exactly how to do it.

Exporting DB Results (or Flat File) To An Excel File

They will either write to a flat file or to a MySQL DB, and I need a way for an administrator to grab an Excel file based on this data. First, no more than 100 people are expected to sign up, so flat file is certainly viable. Do you recommend I use DB or flat file? Second, based on your recommendation, how should I go about exporting the user data to an Excel file? There will be about ten form fields per registration to give you an idea.

MYSQL Excel
I am creating a php/mysql system to run daily chores. That is simple enough. The hard part is the data that populates the database is sent each week via excel spreadsheet (always in the same format - thouhg row numbers change - coloms don't) I want to get this information using php and put the stuff I need from it in the database. Now I have found Navicat which is a great application and did what I needed only I am looking not to use a 3rd party program I simply want a button on the site that wil let you upload a spreadsheet and fill the database correcting any info in the databse allready that is reppeated etc as I won't be the one doing this and for most the users of this post things like navicat are simple enough for the people using the sytem I am creating that is a bit too much like hard work even with all the training. So my question is can this be done and where should I start I pretty much to the point where I realise I will need to open the excel file and stick all the information into an array and then take it from the array and insert into databse. But how do I do this. some links to usefull info or some sample code would help I am quite quick to pick this stuff up when I get on to the right trail.

Excel To MySQL Using PHP...possible?
I've read almost all the Excel XLS to MySQL info in the PHP help section. No one seems to know how to do this. Just says to covert the file to .csv first. Problem is that a lot of my clients will not have excel and the file (the .xls) is coming directly from their product manufacturer. So having all the have to get excel is not going to happen. Only thing I found was a reference to : http://nstoia.com/excel2csv/excel2mysql.zip ... which no longer exists. It was supposed to contain a full PHP script on converting XLS to MySQL. Yet the file doesn't exist and the only other things I can find with that file name is a perl script. Sorry but I really don't want to have to get into perl to do this. I know there has to be a way, since you can easily export SQL to XLS. Also, no code snippits or tutorials out there either. Maybe, someone here has found something I haven't and can enlighten me.

Hyperlink To An Excel File
I have a hyperlink to an Excel spreadsheet but I'm having a bit of trouble with it. My first problem was that IE6 integrates Excel into the IE window when you click an Excel link. I overcame that by having a dummy Excel file run that had VBA code to launch the real application in a new window. That's probably too much info, but there it is. Moving on. My problem is the users will be opening up this VBA Excel application of mine from our Intranet. When they click on the link, the dummy Excel file runs, that in turn launches the real application and all is well and good. Except for one thing. When the user is done or goes back to the IE Intranet window where they launched the application, this is the error that is displayed: The page cannot be displayed: The page you are looking for is currently unavailable. The Web site might be experiencing technical difficulties, or you may need to adjust your browser settings. My two solutions were to either have the link do two things simulatenously. You would click on the app link and it would run the application and it would also reload the Intranet home page. My second solution was to have them click the link and then it would go back to the previous page they were on all in the same click procedure/event/whatever. Code:
