C. From Excel
The From Excel feature allows you to import data directly into the database by importing Excel files from your device into the Database section of your application. Each page of the Excel file you upload is considered as a table and each column header is considered as a table column. The data under the column is added to the specified table. In this way, you can easily create CRUD screens with the data in the Excel file.
