I wanted to see what would a way for me to import data from an excel document into an existing database. I have a database in which I want to clear out the current entries and import data from the excel document into that database. What is the best way of doing this??

Any help or comment will be appreciated.

There are multiple ways to do this..Try the DTS Import/Export wizard via Enterprise MGr -> Tools -> Data Transofmration Services -> Import Data to start with..
