Aha..., a new and this time *very* specific and clear question:=20

So you need some code ??
Oh... and I see it is probbly to add the password and user name ...
Let me see....

Dim strPW as string, strUserName as string, strToAddProbbly as string
strPW=3D"helpmeplease"
strUserName=3D"thread"
strToAddProbbly=3DstrPW & ";" & strUserName

So now you have "helpmeplease;thread" in the strToAddProbbly

HTH ;-)

BTW: I am only trying to be funny here ...=20
but IMO the way some questions are asked is not funny at all...

hey Arno i dont know who you are but by the way you are acting it
shows that your are ametuer
(i cannot reveal the system name but i will right instructions of what
i did and what i got)
it happends with every excel file you will try to link from the web
1)go to file->get extrnal data->link table
2)place the file full link
3)i'm getting a message while its been loading:"connecting to web
server"
4)i'm getting after 1 minute an error message:"not a valid file name"
any ideas here?

Is what you did an option? So far, it doesn't seem to work. Have you
carefully read the Help on Get External Data, and Link?
