Excel Programming >> SQLOpen VBA

I try Chan = SQLOpen("dsn=our database;uid=abc;pwd=555")
and get the sub or function not defined. I tried
referencing several if not all ADO libraries. Any adivce ?
The SQL commands would be very useful to us.

Excel Programming >> SQLOpen VBA 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.

Excel Programming >> SQLOpen VBA Jeff, These functions, including SQLOpen, SQLClose, SQLExecQuery and
SQLRetrieve, are from the now depreciated ODBC Add-in. Andy's memory
must be failing him <g> because he wrote last week: "although this
add-in is no longer included with Microsoft Excel 2002 you can get it
from Microsoft by following this link -
http://office.microsoft.com/downloads/2002/xlodbc.aspx
"
