Hi,

I have idea where and how to start with this project as I am very new to this.

I have an Excel spreadsheet with columns that match that of a SQL table (SQL Server 2008 R2). I want to add a button that will loop through the rows in my Excel sheet and based on the values (multiple cells) update or insert data in SQL.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Not really what I'm looking for. That describes how to get data from SQL, Insert data or delete using aspx page. I want a button in excel that will loop through my existing data in Excel, compare it to what is in the SQL table and if the data exists and there was a change on a specific cell then it must update the sql table, else it must insert new row with the values from excel.

You should have mentioned this in your question, check my answer again, it has a sample way, you could find more in web. And use Google.
