I have a very large Excel spreadsheet (about 5000 rows) that I need to move to a SQL Server table. What is the most efficient way?
The way I know how to do it is:
1. create a table in SQL Server with structure matching the spreadsheet.
2. convert the excel spreadsheet to a .dbf table.
3. programmatically copy data from .dbf table to Sql Server table.
Is there a better way?
Thank you for any suggestions.
