If you place a set of connection files within a folder (UNC or URL), you can make those connection files available to your users by specifying a Name for each of set of connections and a location (UNC or URL) Value for each set of connections. If none are specified here, the Existing Connections dialog box in Excel will have a blank section entitled Connection Files on the Network.
