I have been doing SQL for 25 years and decided to watch at random. I do this all day long. If I was not to know how to do this, this video is very good, both in the delivery of how and why. Also, the presenter spoke very clearly. Good job.

How do you refresh the data? Click refresh or can it be set with a timer e.g. 6am daily.

[@luirm6946]

HI mate, quick question, how would I be able to update connection if I want connect to the same server but different SQL query and run it on the same excel sheet? Props to your video

[@SQLwithManoj]

I think you will need to change the SQL Query everytime.

[@hdchiepduc]

[@tauhidanwar3512]

Very nice and informative video. I am using office 365 and after connecting to sql server, i am not able to edit the query in connection properties. Please help

[@hweegeem]

Hi, how if my data base is from an Excel file? It is .csv file, and the data is keeping on increasing as long as machine working. Do you have any ideas? Means my SQL need to auto update when there are a changes from excel file.

[@rafaelagrava2239]

[@ManojPandeyManub22]

[@greengarden2994]

[@akashkshirsagar3130]

Hello sir ... its great learning as a beginner for me. when I am trying to connect multiple table at the same time, its not working. could u please help me for how to do it?

[@nohemiwest-phelps534]

Great video. When I do this, it puts it into a table and I cant run my vlookups without changing the formatting and then the formatting is lost when the data is refreshed. My vlookups are done off loan numbers and that's the formatting that I have to adjust each time to remove the leading zeros. Any suggestions?

[@SQLwithManoj]

Plz do not mix Excel-SQL-connection with vlookup... try to do vlookup in SQL itself and then pull data in XL.

[@jacobsearl6192]

create a macro that copies, pastes, and re formats the refreshed data.

really nice Video! does anyone know how I can change numbers in Excel and update it in SQL?

[@mohamedjiffry3598]

Is there any risk on database if excel user connect to SQL DB? please advise.

[@SQLwithManoj]

no, as you are using read-only connection from Excel to SQL Server.

[@mohamedjiffry3598]

Thank you

[@santhosh827]

Kindly guide me on following query, when I delete 2 years data out of 5 years from a table using where clause it increased log data120 Gb, so how will remove it from log

[@SQLwithManoj]

If its your DEV/Test database, try checking if the DB RecoveryModel is set to "Full", then set it to "Simple", and Shrink the log file. Or if its your PROD database, then try taking log backup and Shrink the log file.

[@nyali2]

This is from SQL to Excel, not Excel to SQL.. that is quite a difference

[@mr.e299]

Great video but how to connect to a remote Server not on the same network?

[@ItsTarzan100]

Can you please suggest how to do this in Excel 2016 version, I was able to do it in previous version but some reason after excel is updated i am not able to connect.

[@SQLwithManoj]

[@yogeshm5955]

Thank you I am able to connect sql server. My sql database will be updating every ten minute. I want it should be updated every ten minutes and should save automatically in excell even when file is closed. Please help me.

[@SQLwithManoj]

For this you need to use SSIS, that will run the query and redirect records in an excel file with dynamic file name.

[@sabkuchdhela191]

Wat to do for connection in MySQL with live excel updates.. if i update my excel, table gets updated in mysql

[@SQLwithManoj]

no, updating Excel won;t update your table in database.
