Hi Jeremy,
I never tried exporting a complicated data from spreadsheet myself,
but if you can export the spread sheet you have into delimited text
file(for example CSV text file format) . you can use the derby import
procedures(SYSCS_UTIL.SYSCS_IMPORT_TABLE or
SYSCS_UTIL.SYSCS_IMPORT_DATA) to quickly import data into a Derby table.
More info can be found in the derby docs:

Thanks

data out of.
Can anyone suggest a good way of importing the data into a Derby table?
My plan is to suck the spreadsheet in as a single table and then
normalise it afterwards so I don't need to be wildly fancy about schema.
Thanks
Jezza
