Excel utilizes the Microsoft Query file, file extension 'dqy' and is usually
stored under the user id's Application Info \ Microsoft \ Queries folder.
Full Path is
C:\Documents and Settings\UserID\Application Data\Microsoft\Queries
When External Data in imported to a spreadsheet, it makes a query for the
user and saves it in this folder.  This can be moved or modified and then
saved again.
