Import Data/Populate fields in pdf from Excel

Question

I'm not sure if I am using the correct terms, but I would like to set up text fields in a pdf that can import data from specific fields in an excel file.  I found the import data form in the properties of the text field, but it will only allow me to select pdf files.  Is it possible to import data an excel file to a text field?  I would like to do the following
1. create a excel table that includes kids last name, first name, and Grades (Q1, Q2, E1, S1 etc...)
2. I have a pdf form that already has text fields that correspond to the fields mentioned above.
3. Set up the pdf to import the data and generate a page for each student.
I specifically mentioned excel because everyone at my school has excel.  However, it would also work if I could design another pdf with a table that I could import data from.

Answer 1

Something like this?
// Import the first row of data from "myData.txt".
this.importTextData("/c/desktop/myData.txt", 0)
if (typeof cnt == "undefined") cnt = 0;
this.importTextData("/c/desktop/textdata.txt", cnt++ % 4)
// Specify the name of the template
var template_name = "Student Information Sheet";
// Get a reference to the template
var t = getTemplate(template_name);
// Add a new page based on the template
if (t !== null) {
    t.spawn({
    nPage: numPages,      // Add the new page to end of document
    bOverlay: false,      // Create a new page, not an overlay
    bRename: true         // Rename the fields
} else {
   app.alert("The template named \'" + template_name + " does not exist in this document.", 1);
But how would I tell the new page to take the second row from the chart, and will I have to click the button for each one of the fields in the data?
