I am at work so I cant give you the code but what you need to do is the
following:
1. upload to a temporary directory (say /temp - this folder will need
to have appropriate access rights)
2. use the file_read funcions (look for tutorials on flat files for all
this)
3. import your data into the DB
4. If successful use unlink($file); to delete OR print error message
Thanks
