Default External Data - Field Names Changed

Hi there

My aacounting software has changed field names in various tables with
their latest release.

I have changed the SQL with VBA using the "Replace" function (Thanks
to Dick Kusleika www.dicks-clicks.com).

However on refreshing the table, the original field column seems to be
deleted with the new fields inserted in an order I cannot fathom.

Formulae inserted into the table referring to the original fields have
#REF!.

Is there a way to tell Excel to bring in the data in respect of the
renamed field into the correct column?

Thanks in anticipation.

Michael
