Excel could be saved as a CSV. If that works for you then you could use:
Code:
$fp = fopen($complete_path_to_the_uploaded_csv_file, "r")
while (($line = fgetcsv($fp, 1000, ",")) !== false)
{
// $line is an array of cells for the current line in the file
// do something
}There are other examples here:

Are you sure you need to upload the excel file into the database (thats at least the way I read this post) or upload the file on the server and pass the database the name of the file and location for retrieval. The latter will be better all around.
