Default Using cell values in SQL (MS Query)

They are limitations of that approach. If you need more flexibility you
could use ADO directly.

Thanks. A couple of issues:

1) Can't do [ ... WHERE col IN (?)] Only allows single values.

2) Can't have a parameter in a query that can't be displayed
graphically.

Are these for real?

Add a prompt to your query so that it becomes parameterized.

select * from table where id = ?

Now exit the query and return to XL. If you select Data - Import External
Data - Parameters you will be able to assign the parameter to a cell.
