import data directly from XLS/ODS file (Lotus 123 is too old)

To import data into a notes client:

it is possible to import from Lotus 123, but not from Excel or OpenOffice

(my solution or workaround is to use an old Excel 2003, which can save as WK4 (Lotus 123))

I have installed Notes V10 Client, but the import / export options are the same as in 9, no xls files. Where is the option?

.xlsx and .odf should be considered as well.

Thanks for your proposal!

I have a lot of import utilities, too.

I have written them in JavaScript, and Java, and from command line via Ruby and OLE.

All is working, but nothing on earth could replace a fast and interactive import with the Notes Client.

It would be nice to have a configurable import-from-Excel function. In the meantime you can use this approach: http://www.botstation.com/code/excel_people_to_notes.php
