Interaction with excell

Im trying to setup pages with tables and have them automatically updated from
an internal or external excell spreadsheats data that changes every week.

Example- its for a Billliards league. To show the weekly updated scores. All
the scores, player averages, etc. reside in an excel document that is updated
weekly.

Help.
Thanks.

You can use the FP Database component, if hosted on a Windows IIS web server, however Access would
be a better choice since the file format is multi-user whereas Excel's is single user.

Remember that you will need to view the changes on the server. If you try to
view the db results in your preview it won't work. So if the db results look
bad, don't panic. Take your time with the 'insert database' and set it up.
Then view it after you upload it to your server.

Agree that using Access as a DB would be better, but if you want to try Excel as a DB see
