submitting form data to an excel file

[Shim McGee]

I am trying to use an html form to submit data directly to an excel form. I do not need to display the form in the browser at all. The form will be used frequently (weekly entries) for tracking information. The form data is primarily created by making selections from drop-down menus. The excel file will need to be updated everytime the form is submitted (not over-written). I am not familiar with trying to 'persist' data to a file rather than a db. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks.
