    Uploading Excel Files via type="file" element

    Hello All!

    I have an intranet project that ideally opens an Excel Spreadsheet specified by the file upload form element, extracts certain data, and saves it to a database. I've all but given up on opening it right from the user's pc (permissions, etc..) and am now trying to just upload it to the web server, parse the data, and then delete the file. I have seen ASPUpload and a few nice products on planetsourcecode.com, but there has to be a simpler way of transferring a file from the client to the web server - plus, I am not allowed to register any dll's on the web server!

    Anybody have any ideas on ways to do this???

    TIA!

    No there isnt anything simpler. You can look at plasnetsourcecode for ways to do it without a dll, but you will not find anything differnt than the way's you will find on psc.
