Hi, The easiest way is to create an SQL script file and then run it in one of the mysql clients such as mysqladministrator. The following example is very simple but should give you the idea. This part creates the database table DROP TABLE IF EXISTS `database_name`.`table_name`; CREATE TABLE `table_name`.`Types` ( `Type_ID` INT(10) NOT NULL, `Type_Name` VARCHAR(25) NULL, PRIMARY KEY (`Type_ID`); ) This second part inserts the data into the database table, it is this bit that you have created from excel. INSERT INTO `database_name`.`table_name`(`Type_ID`, `Type_Name`) VALUES (1, "Dogs"), (2, "Cats"), (3, "Pigs"), (4, "Donkeys"); Hope this helps, Fred
