Nigel interpreted mssql as mysql. If you just mean access Access or SQL

Andy Wiggins:
This might be a help for getting data to and from Excel and Access: It
includes examples of using variables in SQL queries.
http://www.bygsoftware.com/examples/sql.html
Or you can get there from the "Excel with Access Databases" section on page:
http://www.bygsoftware.com/examples/examples.htm
It demonstrates how to use SQL in Excel's VBA to:
* create a database,
* create a table and add data to it,
* select data from a table,
* delete a table,
* delete a database.
DAO and ADO files available.
You can also download the demonstration file called "excelsql.zip".
The code is open and commented.
