I have data in an SQL Server and an Excel (2003 sp2) worksheet that uses an
embedded Database Query to retrieve the data. All worked fine until the SQL Server hosting the data was migrated to a new box. How does one update the embedded data source to point at the new server? Every time I open the query, it errors because it cannot connect to the old server. I have updated the ODBC configuration to point to the new server, but Excel appears to have retained the original server connection information and doesn't want to give it up. Is there any way to change the data source without having to rewrite all the embedded queries? The Excel help files show how to create new datasources, but have nothing on how to updating an existing datasource. |
