Could you not parse the spreadsheet via a DataTable first? SpreadSheet -> DataTable -> DB2

Ok, can you tell me how to code that? :)

It is possible to connect an excel through an OleDbConnectionString object and it works like a database and the sheet behaves like a table.

ddanbe has provided two great examples of reading the Excel sheets. And This Link directly from IBM shows you how to parse a DataTable into DB2 it's in C# but easy enough to translate.
