What am I doing wrong, I'm sure there are tables. I have no problems importing complete tabeles into Excel from the same database.

But all you need to do once you have the query working in Excel is to: 1. Click a cell in the range you want to refresh 2. Click Data Range Properties on the External Data toolbar 3. Click the "refresh data on file open" box. Save, re-open, and you're good to go. @Antonello, by default the query will not be re-executed.

Thanks, bye. Antonello I have not understood if, once saved the spreadsheet, every time I open it the query will be automatically re-executed, provided the ODBC exists and the DB is accessible.
