Import Excel File As Something Other Than CSV
I have an excel file I need to import into a table. The description field has commas that need to be in there. ex. man,bites,dog. What is the best way to save and import this file? I thought about changing all of the commas in the name to something else, importing it as a CSV file then using an ALTER TABLE command to put the commas back but I'm not sure of the syntax.

Custom Mysql To Excel Import Script
instead of having time to code it myself, i'm wondering if someone has a script i can easily edit myself to do the following. 1. browse for xls file to import into mysql 2. code would have to be customized i'd guess to match xls columns to database columns 3. have add/update functionality. if a certain primary key is chosen (could be hardcoded to email field), then a search is done for this entry. if this entry exists in the database, the data from the xls record updates the existing entry. if not, it would simply add a new record. HOWEVER, one big thing, if the xls file has blank cells for certain columns (besides Email of course), those blanks would be ignored. that is, blank xls cells during an update WOULD NOT overwrite existing database data. that's super important for me.

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?

Excel Import, Export?
Here is my situation. I have a Spreadsheet that I update daily through excel and would like to be able to update this web based. It isn't anything fancy just basic text and a little coloring. I'd like to be able to make changes through the Web based page and than export this to an Excel File at the end of each week, because I need to send the Excel file to my boss. When I am updating it I would like to use two or three drop down menus and than maybe have an update button at the bottom to keep the data updated. I'm not sure if something like this exists or if it is something that can be done. I need some guidance here. Hopefully I explained what I am looking for clearly.

Import From Csv File To MySQL
I'm in the middle of writing a script to import a csv file into mySQL (as apart of a bigger project) I need to know what are the best steps to go from $_FILES to file(). Once the file is read into an array I should be right. I don't want to keep a copy of the file uploaded either, as once it is imported I will have no use for it. I'm not sure, do I copy it store it then use it or is there a faster way? Will the temp file be deleted or do I have to delete it?

Data From MySQL Into CSV For Excel?
I've a survey form that I need to get data from and put into a mySQL database. Easy, can do it eyes closed. But, then I need to be able to take that same information and convert it (either directly or pulling it back out from the database) into a CSV (or any file for that matter) that can be easily imported, added into an existing Excel database. I've no idea how to do that. (I can query the database, that I can do, and create recordsets, AND create text files, but I've never created a CSV file before.) Is there a source, a good Web site for example, that explains that kind of process pretty well?

Downloading MySQL Data To Excel
Wanted some advice on downloading data from MySQL into an Excel spreadsheet... The initial site I was working with was .NET but had to be changed to PHP. When I look at the .NET example page of 'Download', click it it donwloads to an Excel spreadsheet... When I open it up it's all nicely layed out already even has the table names from the database as heading for the Excel columns... I have been able to achieve a download of my data in a PHP page but when IT opens it's not formatted at all, and doesn't have the table names as the headings... Does anyone know if this can be done? Surely you must be able to neaten up the Excel file to some extent...

How To Format Data In A File Which Will Be Open In Excel?
I am trying to generate a file with php from a database extract that i would like to be open in excel. What i need is to format the content of the file in CSV i guess. The 'fgetcsv()' can do the job by formating the content of an existing file. Is there an other option than to create a file with my database content, save it on the server and open/format it with 'fgetcsv()'?

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.

Read Data From MS Access Into MySQL In Real-time
I am currently working on a project that involves reading information from a inventory system into Access via ODBC and display the info on the web site using MySQL. I would like to create a live link between the MS Access(local) and MySQL (remote) whenever the inventory system is updated MySQL will be updated as well. I know that MyODBC will let me do the opposite of what I would like to accomplish by reading data in MySQL into Access. Is it possible to do the reverse way.
