I don't know about updating fields via excel but I have written macros
that link to a sql db and extract data and place it in the spreadsheet.
The only problem is you are limited on the number of sql statements you
can enter; only so many characters allowed in the statement.

Subject: [HP3000-L] Excel to SQL Server
Can one use Excel as a front-end to SQL Server, and allow a user to
insert / update the data that lives in a SQL Server table?
