Default Parameter Driven Query

Hi,

I'm used to using MS Query to return data to Excel, but there's a whole
stack of queries that I run each month (literally, dozens) where the date
range needs to be changed.

I'm wondering whether I could put the chosen date ranges into an excel
spreadsheet, maybe in the format:

Col 1 Col 2 Col 3 Col 4
sheet query start date end date

....and use VBA to modify the SQL for me.

Alternatively, can the SQL itself be written to request a parameter from a
particular location?

Any ideas? This could be a massive time saver!

Cheers,

Tom.
