Short and Sweet: How do you deploy a spreadsheet that has queries in it?

Longer Explanation:

I figured out how to automate the process of pulling data out of a text file downloaded from another computer, I created an MS:Text Driver in ODBC, defining fields and a special delimiter "|", and specifying field types. I noticed that a schema.ini file was created in the folder with the text file, and that the odbc folder on the C: drive contains the dsn file for the connection to the text file.

The queries are all created and the spreadsheet works like a dream.

But now I want to deploy the finished product to a shared resource on the network, so that other people can run it.

What I can't figure out, is how to move the program to another folder, and how to make it work without going through some kind of install on each work station.

Any suggestions?
