Either do some program with ODBC or using SQL Loader(convert excelsheet to text format before dump in with SQL Loader). Hope this is helping

Hi,
Thankyou for the reply.
I have one more question to ask you. I really did not understand what you mean with "program with ODBC"?? And if I make excel file to .txt file, i mean if i change it directly the extension of the file from .xls to .txt then does it work?
And finally, if i want to use oracle tables into excel what i have to do??? I am trying for this option also. I created a table in oracle through sql, now i want to use that table in excel, what step to be adopted?? Please make them step by step procedure.

Thank You,
Raj.

"Program with ODBC" means to develop a program with using ODBC link to Oracle database.

I have tested with text file and chance to xls. It is able read by excel, the important thing is the format of file between txt and xls.

I don't think you can create a table in excel. Only access can have table,sql, like rdbms (single user).
Hope this is helping.
