I am not sure if this is the right section to place this, so I hope someone can help.


I have built a spreadsheet that reads in a SQL table and then does some manipulation on the data. Now, I want to replace the current data in the table with this newly created data within excel. There is not a function to export data like the import, so I am a bit lost.
 

Excel Facts

Remove leading & trailing spaces
Save as CSV to remove all leading and trailing spaces. It is faster than using TRIM().
Do you want to *update existing records* or do you want to *replace* them with new records?

Also, is this SQL Server or another source?

I would like to update existing records. I am looking to do something like:

IF field1 = sheet1!A1 then
Update table1
field2 = sheet1!B1
