Are your data in actual tables, or just laid out in a tabular format? If in tables, are they all in the same table or in multiple separate tables? Do all records contains the same set of fields (regardless of whether they have data)?

Can you attach a document to a post with some representative data (delete anything sensitive)? You do this via the paperclip symbol on the 'Go Advanced' tab.

For examples of what can be done (provided the data have a meaningful structure), see:
