Hi,

What version of Excel are you using?

In 2003 choose Data, Import External Data, New Database Query and follow the
wizard. This will create a connection to Access when can be manually
refreshed or set to automatically update periodically.

If this helps, please click the Yes button.

Hi there

I have a data base in Access and information is kept updated in it. I have
a worksheet in excel that contains some of the same data. Is there a way to
link the two so that when the data is updated in Access it automatically
updates in excel?
