Hali,

Create the query/table you wish to be the source for your excel sheet.

Open your excel file that you wish to be updated and go to Data -> Import External Data -> New Database Query menu path.
Select MS Access Database...

...and the rest is obvious, the wizard will guide you.

(Menu items in the English version may be different, I have Hungarian.)

Each time a user opens the excel file it will prompt the user if she/he wishes to refresh the spreadsheet with the external data.

I am sure there's a way of doing it, but I'm afraid I can't help as I don't really know the Objects of Ecxel.

Others may help in this forum or if you can try to raise your question on other forums or an Excel forum.
