Default ODBC Connector Help

We have and ODBC connector to a SQL database and inserts data into Excel, in
addition we have added columns to the Excel Spreadsheet to add comments.
When an item is deleted from SQL, the Excel Spreadsheet updates and removed
the entry but keeps the comments, therefore associating the comments with the
wrong entry. Is there a way to remove the comment cells as well as the SQL
cells all once.

Thank you, yes, I know I posted in the Programming newsgroup, my question is
how to I tell SQL to delete the entire row in Excel. When I delete the row
in SQL now, it removes the row from SQL and Excel, what it does not remove
the external data that I add after the import is complete.
