i need to import data to excel from an sql db. the sql db is on a server,
excel will be on a remote computer. I'm quite happy to use access as an
intermediary if needed. i would also like to be able to write from excel to
sql is poss. although it this if tricky then i might well concentrate on
importing.

is any of this possible? if so is it hard? and can anyone point me to any
decent resources.

many thanks

Search for DTS packages in the SQL Books Online.
That should help you with what you want to do.
