Question with data importing
What database is the data in? A text file? Access? SQL Server?
If it's in Access, Nick Hodge has a write-up on his site that explains how to use an Excel value as a parameter in an Access query. Be sure to read all the way to the end of the article http://www.nickhodge.co.uk/gui/datam...taexamples.htm "Crnaovca" wrote: If I have one sheet in excel with EAN codes, and external database with 150000 products, I cannot import it in Excel.

Question with data importing
I face a very similar challenge to the one described by Cmaovca, the Nick
Hodge write-up almost worked for me. After I entered the criteria screen, the "Import Data" window appears where I should click the "Parameters" button. Unfortunately it is inactive. Why?
