After You've Compared SQL Data With Excel Data

Once you have selected the data you are interested in from SQL Server into Excel you can run local SQL queries on the data.

If you wish to insert new data into your SQL Server Database, or update data you can achieve this by simply selecting your SQL Server Database as your Data Source and then running UPDATE, DELETE or INSERT SQL queries against it.
