    1. Create table in Excel compatible with ODBC. You must name the range of cells you will mine.
    2. Create trees from the Excel data using the Database Interface Designer. Choose the range of cells (by name) that you will use.
    3. Use trees in map with MDQ file using ODBC as the adapter.

    There is also the DDEQUERY function but I do not think that is what you mean.
