I have question about Excel file uploading into database (MySQL or another one). So, is there any options by which I can upload any/random Excel file? I'm not sure how to make it without structure in database but I want to make it automatically with HTML upload. I did it with PHP, HTML and AJAX but I have structure in database and that's an issue because I can't upload Excel file with different data structure. How to automate it?

I'm looking for a way to open a .iqy file from script and save the file that i get.
Context: Where I work we currently try to automate the process of renaming building elements. For those we have the properties saved in an SharePoint Excel file and we want to find a 1-Click-Solution, where a programm fetches the data from the SharePoint tables and uses ArchiCAD API to get those changes into the project.
If anyone knows a comfortable way to get the data from SharePoint (tried REST API with not much success) or the .iqy file, i would be very grateful :)
Kind Regards

as title says I am trying to read the Excel file placed on online SharePoint using the OData component in SSIS.
I am trying to make an SSIS package that will update my database in sql server with the data from that Excel file. I managed to do that when my file is placed locally.
I also managed to see my file using by adding /_vti_bin/listdata.svc/ inside target URI, i get an Share Point list where one of the components is my excel file, but I can't open it that way.
Also I need to use credentials to access the SharePoint.
I would be thankfull for any help :D
Acceptable solution would be to download that file first, but I haven't managed to do that either.
Need help to implement one requirement. i am working on node.js application and want to open different types documents e.g. pdf, word, xls etc in browser. also once document is open in viewer, user should be able to add some comments and freehand writing on it and save it in some format.
I am new to Jsp. I am developing the tool for testing usage, and have succeeded to open the excel file in the browser from the jsp application. However, i am not able to modify or edit the opened excel sheet.
Please help how to modify the excel in the browser.
You cannot do this when displaying the file inline in a browser or doing a 'Open file' when getting a download popup. Simply because the file is then copied into client's disk file system. If you save the edits, it's saved in the same copy on the client's disk file system. This does not affect the original file in the server side in any way.
There are basically 2 ways to achieve your requirement:
Let client download a copy of the excel file and store it in the client side disk file system, so that the client can edit and save it locally. Give the client the possibility to upload the edited file back. In the server side just replace/backup the original file.
Use HTML forms the smart way to mimic an Excel sheet and use a Java Excel API (Apache POI, JExcelAPI, etc) to map between this data and the actual Excel file which is stored in the server side disk file system.
Have you looked at JExcel?
The FAQs also explain how to use the API with jsp.
I have uploaded a doc file on SharePoint site. Now I want to know the path of the file on the server (System).
If you uploaded it into a SharePoint document library, then it's not on the filesystem. It's in a SharePoint content database. If you can elaborate on what you want to do with the file, it will be easier to recommend ways to attack the problem and get the info you need.
It is saved in the content database. That's why you can't find it on disk.
