Beginner: Find an online DB to practice on?

[excel2010]

I'm teaching myself Excel, and learning about importing data. Where are some db's I can import from..can be anything, weather, tv schedules etc. All the tutorials assume that you already have a DB you want to connect to...

Hi,

You might get better information posting in forum707, for Excel VBA, forum68 for Excel spreadsheet features & functions.

Check out the Windstar (or something like that) MS Access db example that Microsoft supplies.

Northwind db is available in Access & SQL Server, and also as a free download from MS Office website.

Or maybe spending too much time looking at Ford minivans?
