So you want to be able to import and link Access tables in Excel. In my example I have a relational database created in Microsoft Access: I want to import one of the Access tables into Excel. The Access table I want to import has relationships with other tables in the database. Using Power Query I can expand foreign key fields and select which fields from related tables I want to include in the import.

Power Query creates a query that can be easily refreshed, pulling through new records whenever they are created in the Access database.
