Linking Worksheet to Database?

[RoadKill]

I know how to link an Access Database to a Spreadsheet, but how do you do the
reverse?

Thank you

In Access choose File, Get External Data, Link.

To make this work properly I suggest you range name your data set in Excel.

That works if the data was in Excel and I want to create a new table in the
database. But my data is already in a table in the database. So I want to do
the opposite.

Well in that case, choose Data, Import External Data, New Database Query, and
find and select your database. Then proceed through the wizard.
