Pivot Table with MS Access as DataSource
Hello all. Thanks for the help in advance.
I am trying to use a UNC to pull data from a MS Access database as a external datasource for a pivot table in MS Excel 2003. I can actively pull the data, since I have a network drive mapped to the location, but others who have the drive mapped to another letter are unable to open the document and refresh. I am trying to figure out the best way to create this pivot table utilizing the shared network UNC. Please help! Regards, Me |

Pivot Table with MS Access as DataSource
Hello,
I would use a SQL query to pull the data out of the Access db. Then everyone can push data into the Access db, you can refresh your Excel spreadsheet and get the latest data. Search for something like 'Create, edit, and manage connections to external data' in Excel help for instructions on how to connect to the external data. HTH. "PiB311" wrote: Hello all.
