    Insert without disturbing existing records

    How do I Insert new rows without disturbing existing records. I am using data
    import and then populating the excel sheet. I have tried setting Data range
    properties but that didn't help

    Where do you want the new data to go? Where are the existing records?

    Perhaps you can manually cut and paste at the end of the current data,
    or create a macro to append the records. However, to get specific help,
    you'll need to provide some details on what you're trying to do.

    Re: Insert without disturbing existing records

    ok here's more detail:

    1. I have an application from which I export data to .txt file
    2. From excel I import the data
    3. I auto refresh the imported data range everytime I want to update the
    excel.

    By doing # 3, there are new records which I want to get appended starting
    from the last row or user defined row. But that doesn't happen and the
    existing records are disturbed. i.e., new records (cells) overwrite/replace
    the existing records.
