Front-End for an Excel Data Base

Venkat

Greetings,
I'm hoping to create a Data Base with Excel, but would like some to
use other program as the front-end. Which would the Ideal Front-end for
the same? (Appending & Querying must be preformed with ease.)
Thanks
Venkat.

That sound's totally back-to-front to me. I can understand using a database
somewhere else and Excel as a front-end analysis tool, but the other way.

You would probably have to use an ODBC connection into the Excel file,
unless the other product supported ADO and OLEDB, which is not good. Why
would you want to do it that way?

Having said that, I have queried Excel tables using Brio.

Thanks Bob,
I know it's Inside Out, but it's a Simple Project for a Co-op to
manage their Address DB which is there in Excel. They R reluctant to
change their DB from Excel. Think I will go with Access.
