I'm not clear on what you are trying to accomplish, but you can query
most major SQL databases (including DB2) directly from Excel using a
little VBA and ADO. I can posts links to examples if you desire.

I'm trying to restrict my query to the list of names in the Excel s/
s(spreadsheet).
Here are some steps given to me. I will attempt to do this:
Drag a common field (perhaps EmployeeID) from the Excel table to the
Pers_Table.
This operation is called "creating an inner join". Run the query. It
will now restrict the query to the list in the Excel file.
