How do I upload and count different database files in ASP?

I need to build an application that allows my users to upload an excel database and count the records in that database so I know how much to charge them. I also want to give them the ability to upload their database as a text file (tab or comma delimited) and have the program count those files also. Anyone know how this would be accomplished or know of any online tutorials for such an application?

I don't know what an Excel database is... Do you mean Access database?

If it is an Access database, you can connect to it in ASP (if you know the location) and count the rows in a table.
There are probably numerous tutorials on this,
If it's a comma delimited file, you can open it in ASP and count the newline characters which delimits the records.

No, I mean excel. It is a mailing list, database was the wrong word. A mailing list will all different columns representing the different fields like Address, First name, last name, city, state, zip, etc. We receive excel lists and lists in text delimited formats so I wanted to know if there was any online resources for doing that.

Ok, I see. I guess I was hoping you didn't really mean Excel, since I have no clue how to do that :-)
I think I would convert and save it to comma separated file which can be opened in an ASP script. Should be fairly simple to count the number of lines then. Sorry I don't have the documentation right here with me.

Not a problem, anyone else have experience with this?
