jeeves245 Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 I have an existing script that uploads and processes a CSV file. But I was thinking it might be a good idea to let PHP do the conversion from XLS to CSV as well as upload it. Does PHP have a function to handle this? Thanks.

phpdeveloper82 Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 Most of the time, I used the method Open excel file --> file -> save as -> .csv file You can check the following package to read xls file using php: http://sourceforge.net/projects/phpexcelreader/ Also please have a look on the page: http://www.prodevtips.com/2008/11/02/from-excel-xls-to-csv-with-php-excelreader/ Check & post the feedback Good Luck!!
