Upload excel file/Enter data into FileMaker

Jul
in Importing & Exporting

Featured Replies

Hi,

I have a small FileMaker database with just 10 fields which is available on the web via CDML/php. The data for this database is coming of the Excel spreadsheets. At the moment I import the data from them into FileMaker directly. Is there any way to make it possible for people who can access it only from the web to import those records from Excel (or maybe csv, tab) files?

Thanks a lot.

I know that few people like this (me too...), but if

1) your Excel file is on your server

2) it has always the same name

3) the web traffic is not too important on your site

write a script to import the data from Excel automaticaly, and put a submit button to run the script in your web page.
