Getting values from an excel document? :)

Hello Flashkitters,

I do have a dropdown combo box menu with hundreds of
options.

When users will choose an option, three dynamic text boxes
will show three diferent values.

I was thinking to assign each dropdown option three text
variables to be shown in the dynamic text boxes.

The question is...Is there any better/faster way to
achieve this than manually assigning values to each
dropdown option?

I do have all the values in an Excel document, is there any
way to get the data directly from the Excel doc?

Thanks in Advance :)

export the data from excel as a csv and import it into a mysql database then pull the values out with some php or asp scripting hope this helps

Hi nubz, thanks for your fast answer :)
Do you know of any good tutorial about this?
I am afraid I am too newbie in ASP/PHP to proceed.

Thanks ;) I truly appreciate your response.
