using Excel to connect to external data source

Hello everyone,
I am learning how to use Excel to connect to other external data source
(like database). What I want to do is to develop a plug-in for Excel and
automatically access external data source, then display it in Excel tables.

Are there learning resource? I have tried to search in MSDN, but can not
find any learning resources.
thanks in advance,
George
