[support] Import data or create nodes from Excel

[Luke]

The most likely starting point would be node_import:

http://www.drupal.org/project/node_import

It will not handle Excel files natively however--you will need to have 
them available as CSV files.

If that is not possible for what ever reason, you may look into a tool 
which converts between the formats (there are a few ways to do this in the 
unix world, including one direct xls2csv program, although I do not know 
what package it is a part of).
