Both Excel and Access are capable of doing a lot of things that the other can do. Both can store data. Both allow you to manipulate data. Access is primarily for lists of data, such as names and addresses, while Excel mainly deals with numbers.
Linking data between spreadsheets in Excel 2013, 2010 or 2007 ties cells on separate pages together, automatically updating a target cell whenever the source cell changes. By linking instead of copying data, you can leave your messy calculations on one sheet and display the result cleanly on another. Excel can also link data between entirely separate workbook files, as long as both files are on the same computer or network. Links update whenever a source cell's data changes.
