I was wondering if someone could direct me to some resources where I could
teach myself how to export data from Excel to a MySQL database.

I have a number of spreadsheets I use for data collection, and have recently
set up a MySQL database to stash the data in.  I've managed to figure out
how to copy/paste blocks of data into an HTML form and have PHP stick
the data into the database.  I'm looking for a way I can do it from within 
Excel
now, since there are more blocks of data I need to store which are scattered
throughout the spreadsheet.  I'd like to automate the process a little more
and go beyond the copy/paste thing.

I've looked at MyODBC a little bit, but not enough to see how I can use it
for this task (one of the things on my to do list).

I expect I'll end up learning some VB for doing this.

Many Thanks
Eugene
