    Import to Excel from Access column of LOOKUP data type

    Hi Folks!



    I have a simple problem, and I'm hoping there is a simple solution. I'm importing into Excel a table from Access. One of the table columns is of the LOOKUP data type. The lookup includes an id# and a name. In Access, I've chosen to hide the id#. However, when I've imported the data to Excel, the Excel column does not display the name. It only displays the id#, which is not useful.

    How can I get the name itself to carry over to Excel?

    Thanks!

    D.

    alter your query to include the table that has the english....and use that column instead.
