I use a packaged software program at the dealership I work at. In the past I have been able to pull queries and information out of the database and into Excel. The query builder pulls the data as read-only and thus no fear of changing the main database. I have developed an access database for doing commissions. I want to be able to link my database with the companies database as read-only. This would save typing a lot of the duplicate information (ie customer name, date etc.). I have been able to successfully link the 2 databases but realized quickly that anything I change in msaccess will change on the main database. I don't want to corrupt the main database and really only want to pull the information for viewing. Any comments or help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Rob
