I have a spreadsheet of contact information that was saved both as an Excel document and a QuattroPro 8 document. This spreasheet contains over 3000 names and addresses. Is there any way to convert either one of these files into a database that easy to handle, without having to retype all the information?

Converting an Excel list into an Access table is as easy as copying the Excel data and pasting it into the tables list in Access.

Hi,

For me the best way to convert this databases is convert it on a plain text with a delimited format then import it on Access or any database software you wish that support txt file. I think you will not lose any data by doing these. Hope this helps.
