aODBC(1,1)=1526
aODBC(1,2)=Connectivity error: [Microsoft][ODBC Excel Driver] 'Sheet1$' is not a valid name.

SQLTABLES(lnConnHand)

returns 1

I am not sure what version the excel model was created/saved with. How do I find out???

The sheets' original name was 'Export_to_Contractor_Temp_of_Jo', possibly more, so I tried renaming to 'test' and then

SQLEXEC(lnConnHand, [SELECT * FROM "test"])

but with no luck

Geoff
