I am doing a website for a bar and they have a large track listing that they
have given to me in Excel that they would like to display on their site - which
is done entirely in flash. As I am way behind on it and it has take me twice as
long as I originally planned, is there some quicker way to implement this? I am
sure such data integration has been done many many times, is there any shortcut
I can take? Thanks!!!

the quickest way to implement a large Excel file that I can think of is to save
it as an XML file that can then be imported to the appropriate web page on your
site. i know that this can be done with a page create with Flash.

But from this would I be able to run queries, like search for artist or song? I
am suspecting that I need to connect to a database, I have done this before
with MySql, can I link part of my Flash page with mysql? THANKS
