Thanks for your prompt reply.<br />
<br />
There are no restrictions on this Excel file, sheet, cell, ect..., and I have NTFS Full Control.<br />

If you refer to the ability of &quot;editing the data&quot; by changing cells = Yes I can.<br />

<div>
When I right click on a data field, from which the info is imported by the query, I don't get any option to edit the data.<br />
<br />
However, I can left click on the call and by simply selecting it, I can change it's content.

<div>
... However, I can left click on <b>a cell </b>and by simply selecting it, I can change it's content.

The problem is that I don't know what cell is connected to the database.<br />
<br />
So, I finally resolved the issue by clicking &quot;alt&quot;+&quot;shift&quot;+&quot;F11&quot;.<br />
<br />
A XML looking window appeared. I changed the required text (MySQL IP address) and the problem is now resolved.<br />
<br />
So we will not need to work more on this.<br />
<br />
Your help was very appreciated. Thanks a million.<br />
<br />
Cheers,<br />
