I would like to extract data from MS Access into Excel '97 to populate
single cell, preferably imitating the 'vlookup' function, i.e. give
the value of an Excel cell, the related field name in the externa
database query, and the field with the value to return, it wil
populate the current cell with this value.

Not sure how clear that is. Let me know if it isn't, and thanks fo
any help you can give
 
I've found a solution using the SQL.Request workbook function, whic
does what I need. However, I need to populate many cells and it i
slowing down the sheet to an unusable pace. I don't want to turn o
manual updates. It would be faster if I could execute a SELEC
statement to return more than one value at once, populating a number o
cells at once.

Once again, thanks if anybody can help
