Excel can use ODBC connections, check if you have the ODBC driver for MySQL
installed, and launch the import data wizard. At some point you will be able
to select/configure the ODBC connection to your database.
If you want to be sure, configure and test first the connection in the
Windows Administrative Tool for ODBC, and it will be available for the wizard.
I don't have MySQL installed, so I cannot give you the details on how to
configure it.

Hope this helps,
Miguel.
