MS Excel -- Automatic Update Of Data

I've got a cell that contains a number, and it is likely for hat number to increment or decrement itself on a ragular basis. Could someone briefly explain how it would be made for the number to adjust automatically? For example, lets say that that cell is driven by a database, if I import data from a database, and then the information in the db changes, will Excel adjust accordingly? Please help -- I'm really stuck on this. It's part of some coursework I'm doing and I'm desperate for an answer.

If you really import the cell from a database, the value will change when you perform the import. then, it will not be changed until the next import.
If the cell is linked to a query to the database, it will probably change each time you refresh your view or each time you click in the "recalculate now" tag which is hidden somewhere in the Exclel menus.

How to increment the cell values when I linked two excel files
MS Excel -- Automatic Update Of Data

I am using two excel sheets. Sheet1 linked to sheet2.
For ex:
Sheet1's B1 cell linked to sheet1's c1;
Sheet1's B2 cell linked to sheet1's c2;
Sheet1's B3 cell linked to sheet1's c3

When I tried to link the first b1 cell and try to drag to copy on the same way the formulae for b2 and b3 cells., I am not getting the appropriate values. I am getting the same b1 cell values in the cell. I need to get the increment of cell number when I am dragging the cell value to the other cell values.

Can some one help me to solve this issue. It will save lots of my time.

automatcally open other excel files to update data
MS Excel -- Automatic Update Of Data

I have a database that will export numerous excel files. I have an excel file that uses the data from these exported files. My trouble comes when theses exported files are regenerated by access. The master excel file will not get the updated information from the exported files unless the exported files are opened (even momentarily) while the master file is open.

Q: Is there a way either from access or excel to have the master file get updated automatically.

Thanks

EXCEL STOCK UPDATE
MS Excel -- Automatic Update Of Data

I have the stock symbols (tickers) to all thestocks that I'd like it to automatically update the price of the stock and thechange in the stock. There's about 7,000 stocks so it's got to be built very robustly to be able to update each of the stock's price and change.

Also I would like to add stocks to this list over time so that in the nearfuture I can add a stock to the spreadsheet and it will automatically get the priceand change of the stock.

Aside from downloading the stock price and change I'd like it to download thecompany's name of each stock as well so that a column next to the symbol willbe the company name.

HI

Between linking of files one file is main file and remaining files having link with taht file. SO any change in perticular file with all files are linked will update changes in all remaining files.

I f your master file having link with any file not other file having link with master file, then automatically changes will update in your file.
