Use An External Data Source To Import Data Into An Excel Pivot Table

When creating an Excel Pivot Table, what happens if your data source is in another location?

Would you have to copy your data into the same spreadsheet?

Well, NO! You can simply use the External Data Sources feature in your Pivot Table and Excel will magically import the data for you!

You can import data into your Pivot Table from the following data sources:

Excel workbook
Microsoft Access database
SQL Server
Analysis Services
Windows Azure Marketplace
OData Data Feed
For our example, we will import data using two data sources, an Excel workbook and an Access file.
