automating taking data from sql server 2000 onto excel 2003 spreasheet

I would like to know recommendations on automate the following:

1. I want to know how to take data from various sql server 2000 data queries and load the data onto excel spreadsheets in an automated method. Some of the data loaded into the excel spreadsheets load detail data and some load data into pivot tables.

Is there any way that the data can be taken from sql server to the excel spreadsheets using odbc connections?

2. Some of the data taken from sql server 2000 database is loaded into pdf files. Is there any way this process can be automated?

Thanks!

You can use macros in Excel to do this task.

Have you checked out Reporting Services? This allows you to export to a number of different formats including PDF.
