Excel to SQL - Very large file

Question

I have a excel workbook with two sheets. One sheet is maxed out and the other is over half way. In total there's about 1.7 million rows.

Can someone help me with getting this into sql format. I need to import this into my sql server. I can either use Workbench or PHPMyAdmin.

The excel file is 84MB.

Thanks for your help.

Try to save your data as CSV file (Excel allows to do it), then import data from the CSV file into specified table with LOAD DATA INFILE statement.

Also, have a look at this feature - Data Import tool (Excel format) in dbForge Studio for MySQL.
