Connect to a Crosstab query in Access from Excel

I am connecting to Accesss 2003 from Excel 2003 using an ODBC connection. I want the query results to load directly into Excel. This works with Select queries not with the Crosstab query I want to see. Is this simply not possible and, if so, why? Otherwise could you help, please? I am getting a message box with this message...
[Microsoft][ODBC Microsoft Access Driver]Invalid character value for cast specification on column number 28 (9)

Many thanks

Sure it is possible, however unlikely.

However, it is more likely that one (or both) of the parties involved was "recording/saving" the conversation and that somebody broke into their PC and got access to the file.

First thing to do is check their PC for virus/malware.
Second thing is if they have wireless networking to secure it. If they beleive it is already secured. non-broadcasting SSID and WPA code, then change the WPA code.
