When you say spread sheet if you mean csv file it will be easier then if it is an xls file. If csv give the user the means to upload the file to the server. I've used the asp .net control for uploading which seems to work out well. Once uploaded use the filestream class to open the csv file, parse through the file for the data items, and insert them into your database. If the files are xls you will have to do Excel automation to pull out the data from the spread sheet. You can to this client side or server side. If client side the user will need to have Excel installed. You also may have to worry about what version they have. If you do it on the server your version is not a problem but using server resoucres could be a problem if multiple people will be uploading at the same time. For server side you will have to setup a service application to process the xls files.

I have finally cracked it. No dummy databinds required or anything other than the findcontrol method. The key is purely down to using the method at the correct time in the page life cycle. I used the following to set a textbox to the current date and time. where: Formview ID = "Details" Formview child Textbox to change ID = "Date_AddedTextBox" (Textbox is in the insert template) Protected Sub Details_DataBound(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Details.DataBound If Details.CurrentMode = FormViewMode.Insert Then Dim Test As TextBox = CType(Details.Row.FindControl("Date_AddedTextBox"), TextBox) Test.Text = Now() End If End Sub So ... if like me you have been to hell and back via the entire internet trying to do what seems like the simplest thing, trust your code as it is probably correct and try it at a time where the items have definitely been created and and data definitely bound (such as the event I used above) and you should have success.
