ODBC connection to LimeSurvey and Excel

Question

I want to connect excel through a ODBC connection to the database of individual surveys in LimeSurvey is this possible? I have looked in the manual and Googled but have found nothing.

Or if not ODBC is there another way?

Thanks

Well, if you let us know what you want to achieve by connecting excel with limesurvey database, it will be more clear to answer your question. I guess you would be more interested in the Excel export feature in LimeSurvey than ODBC connection?

However, coming to your question, I have tried connecting LimeSurvey db with MS Access using ODBC. And I think you should be able to do the same with MS Excel.
