hi
right click anywhere within the query range. from the popup, click data
range properties. when the property dialog pops up, at the top, uncheck "save
query definition". you will get a popup warning you that this will
perminently remove the query from the sheet. click ok on the popup then click
ok on the property dialog,
query gone. data will remain. delete data.

Hello all,

I have an Excel file that retrieves the data from an Access database via
query. As you all know, once a query is created, a define name is created as
well. The problem that I am having is I don't know how to delete the query.

For example, I created a query with the define name called "Query A".
Somehow, I messed up on the query. So I want to create a new one with the
same define name "Query A". Then I deleted the define name "Query A". When
I recreate the query, it tells me that there is a query created with the same
name.

Please help. Thanks.
