Default From excel file into MS SQL server

I need to find a way to upload an Excel file into an MS SQL database
using a web control front end. I have my ASP.Net control (using C#)
uploading a file to a directory, but the server people now tell me that
I cannot have a writeable area for the web and have a DTS see it as this
is too much of a security risk. So, I need a way to read the file
directly into the database. I've no idea how to do this. Does anyone
have ideas? I know loading MS Office into the web server is out of the
question. The webserver and database server are not the same physical
machine.

Thanks.
