title: How do I import an Excel spreadsheet into SQL Server 2008R2 database?
body: <p>I have got huge list of contact information in an Excel sheet that I would like to turn into table in the database so that I can maintain them in the database. </p>
  
  <p>I tried following the import/export flat file import from the SQL Server 2008 R2, but it did not work. Can anyone tell me how do I successfully import the spreadsheet into a table in the database? </p>
  
  <p>Thanks</p>
