Thanks Linda. The data changes in size each time...sometimes bigger,
sometimes smaller...so would I'd have to re-identify the range each
time? Can that be automated? /g

Rmember that Access isn't my strong point BUT...
If you name the columns/rows as a range in Excel, I know when you import
Excel spreadsheets from Access, you have a choice to just import that
range...so maybe you could try that?=20

I get data via MS Query through Microsoft Terminal Services. I don't
know if that's significant information or not.
The workbook has several spreadsheets. Each spreadsheet represents a
specific bit of information. The information is placed into Access.
If I link Access tables directly to the worksheets, a query can take a
LOOOONNNNNNGGGG time to run. I discovered that there are columns and
rows in the worksheets without no data in them. For example, a
worksheet that would contain 20,000 rows links to Access with 60,000
rows and where it should have 4 columns of data, it shows up with 9.
My solution to this has been to copy the data on each spreadsheet to a
new Excel spreadsheet which is then imported to Access. There's about
30 of these worksheets in three workbooks.
Is there a way of having Access link to or import only columns and rows
containing data?
