Tried something different. Had another user create a query and save the
query from Microsoft Excel. I copied the query to my hard drive. I open a
new spreadshet, new database query, select queries tab, browse to find the
query, when I select the query I get the following error message.

"Data source name not found and no default driver specified."

Any thoughts?

In Excel, I open a new spreadsheet, set up a new database query, select the
tables, fields, and criteria for my query, return the data to excel. Once I
return the data to Excel, it appears I am unable to edit the query. I've
tested this in multiple spreadsheets and the same error occurs. Does anybody
have an idea what the issue could be. I am querying an Oracle Database and
am running Excel 2003.
