This just came up in the Commerce Server forums and I wanted to remind everyone that FarPoint Technologies has an Excel parser component (FarPoint Spread for BizTalk Server 2006) that can be used to create a simple process for uploading Excel catalog data into Commerce Server 2007.
The FarPoint website contains training videos, the case study I participated in, and lots of other technical information on this very cool tool!
If you missed my previous posts, you should take a look!

Just ping me at jeffrey.t.lynch@[nospam]comcast.net if you need a copy of my entire BizTalk solution for this. It's free of charge for any existing Commerce Server customer that buys the FarPoint Spread for BizTalk Server 2006 component as my way of saying thanks!
Best regards,
