QueryTable.Recordset property (Excel)
Returns or sets a Recordset object that's used as the data source for the specified query table. Read/write.
Syntax
expression.Recordset
expression A variable that represents a QueryTable object.
Remarks
If this property is used to overwrite an existing recordset, the change takes effect when the Refresh method is run.
If you import data by using the user interface, data from a web query or a text query is imported as a QueryTable object, while all other external data is imported as a ListObject object.
If you import data by using the object model, data from a web query or a text query must be imported as a QueryTable, while all other external data can be imported as either a ListObject or a QueryTable.
Use the QueryTable property of the ListObject to access the RecordSet property.
Example
This example changes the Recordset object used with the first query table on the first worksheet and then refreshes the query table.
With Worksheets(1).QueryTables(1)
.Recordset = _
Workbooks.OpenDatabase("c:\Nwind.mdb") _
.OpenRecordset("employees")
.Refresh
End With
