Use an OCR to convert the image to text. Then, parse the text to extract the values, and construct a query based on what you know about how the information is stored to put them in the correct columns. You can also use that information to validate them, as OCRs are usually not perfect.

Sorry, I've never used an OCR programatically. The Google search should get you going.
