title: How to import data from Excel into SQL Server 2008
body: <p>I actually want to import data from an Excel file into an existing database (I use SQL Server 2008 and VB.net) using a T-SQL stored procedure called from my VB.NET app.</p>
  
  <p>So is there a possibility to do that just by coding (without using any other tool SSIS or the SS import and export wizard), if yes can somebody give me just a simple sample of code.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance!</p>
