I have to convert data from an Excel spreadsheet to a .DBF file.
The problem is that the Excel file has no clear structure. For every "record" I need to convert there are more than one rows in the Excel file. But the number of rows is not the same for each "record". I need to "extract" from the Excel file only several cells, which are spread over several rows. Any suggestions to do it in a more of automatic/programmed way rather than manually rearrange the Excel file?

Thank you in advance for any suggestions.
