Default truncated data

I couldn't get the <data<external data<new database query to work.
Probably my inexperience. The 2nd option also didn't work. A co-worker
suggested to copy the query into word then into excel. That worked!

Thanks,

Here are a couple options:

1)Use <data<get external data<new database query etc...to pull the data
into your workbook

OR
2)Export the MS Access query data to an Excel file.
Then, copy from THAT Excel file into your Excel file.

Does that help?

however the paste into exce truncates the field. Any ideas?
