I need some help to deal with external data support on Microsoft Word. I want to learn the same. But not able to figure out how to do that actually. Can anyone explain in simple way how to use Ms Query. I want to install that and use it. But I am not able to find it anywhere. Is this a separate product or some kind of add-in available that we can install later on.
It is some kind of hidden tool inside Microsoft Office. You can run a customize setup or simply run the installation and install only MS Query. It must be somewhere in the additional component. By default it is not installed. You need to add it manually. For that go on Control Panel > Add/Remove Program and look for Microsoft Office. In that click on Office and then click Chaange. Choose Advance Customization and then look under Office Tool. You can find MS Query there. There are tons of help articles on web and on Microsoft website that you can use to learn it. Just check the link below.
