How do I connect to access 2007 data from excel?
 
I have a link to Excel 2007 data in Access 2007 and when changes are made in
Excel... Access is updated. I have tried to connect to Access data from
Excel and the query I need is not an option. What am I doing wrong? (P.S. I
am really new to Access and I am not a programmer.) Any help is greatly
appreciated.
Thanks,
Marilyn

Sorry about the confusion!! From Excel 2007: Data, External Data, From
Access, Select Data Source....My Access 2007 Database is not listed. I have
two queries in Access that I want to connect to to create a chart and have
the info updated when changes are made in Access. I have "Access 2007 for
Dummies" and it stated to create charts in Excel instead of Access. Why does
Access not show up in Select Data Source?
Thanks

You will need to navigate to and show the contents of the folder that
your Access file is in.
