Thing is Tony, I was trying to make a sort of Dashboard in Excel so the user could do everything from there, without even worrying about what's happening in the back in Access. Another thing is, the updating needs to take place from values in Excel, because of the Add-on that I have which gets the latest StockPrice values straight into a spreadsheet, I'm not to familiar with how Linked tables work, but would it be possible to do that on the Access side, by linking a particular spreadsheet? Problem is, the values in Excel need to be refreshed before they goto Access.

Ah, well, you enver said that in your initial posting. <smile> Is this Bloomberg data? If so I've worked with the API directly to pull in data into a table.

Actually it isn't bloomberg data, the bosses wanted a cheap solution so I found this add-on for Excel, which gets its values from yahoo finance and msn, the values get pulled into Excel at the end of each working day, since the database only needs to store the end of the day share price and volume, I thought it was a reasonable option to do it that way. The second piece of code is supposed to pull that data into the specific Access table, now again my VBA isn't that strong but I'm learning as I go, so in this regards any help would be appreciated.
