QUESTION POSED ON: 12 October 2006 We are working with SQL Server 2000 Enterprise Edition. We have been tasked with developing a report from the SQL Server database, which we then have to display in Excel. This data will be calculated using a query and then placed into specific cells of the Excel workbook for calculation and graphs. Should we use Visual Basic or does this involve other services provided with SQL 2000?
