Sorry I can't find this info in the document you linked to. There are
several paragraphs about linking to spreadsheets but that's all I can find.

Nevertheless, thanks to both responders for the information, which proved to
be what I needed. I would say that for folk coming to Base from Access, the
lack of a menu option for 'import' does not help. To be fair, select/paste
is more intuitive and a plus for Base.

Again thanks
David
