I have several Excel workbooks that use Access as their
data source (Access is linked to SQL server). Each
workbooks uses a number of the Access queries to get its
data; Excel forces me to login to SQL Server for each
query, even though they are all through the same Access
database.

Is there way to override this behavior? Can't I login
once and refresh all of my queries with a single database
login?

TIA.
