How to use ajExecuteSql



The ajExecuteSQL function executes a SQL Statement and then returns the result. We can use this in Excel to allow users to execute SQL statements that were not possible previously.


Some common SQL statements like

  • SELECT - extracts data from a database

  • UPDATE - updates data in a database

  • DELETE - deletes data from a database

  • INSERT INTO - inserts new data into a database

  • CREATE DATABASE - creates a new database

  • ALTER DATABASE - modifies a database

  • CREATE TABLE - creates a new table

  • ALTER TABLE - modifies a table

  • DROP TABLE - deletes a table

  • CREATE INDEX - creates an index (search key)

  • DROP INDEX - deletes an index

All the above can be easily run in Excel just like a normal function.

Below is one of the samples on how you can run it with AlchemyJ


=ajExecuteSql(select version())
