I have heard that excel-based ODBC connections can cause high server load (repeatedly warned at least).
Is this a catch-all disclaimer, or is there a serious issue here? I plan to have 5-8 excel sheets that would be open all day updating one table (with about 65 cells) every minute.
I can’t imagine it would cause much load…. but surely the best way to find out is to try it in a test environment and monitor the server metrics…
