    GET DATA SQL SERVER DATABASE (Read Only?)

    Hi, just a quick question. We do have a database in our company there contains all our drawing data.

    I have found out this week, it it pretty easy to make a get data from the SQL server thru excel.

    But my basic question is, is the connection Read Only if not , can i set it to read only, or do we need a new "Read only" user. I am not admin, and do not have the rights or the know how. I wish i can do it in excel.

    If you are using PQ to read the data from SQL, then there is no write back to the data base.
