Automatically opening an excel spreadsheet, finding a value

I need to create a button on an access form that, when clicked, opens an excel spreadsheet on our server.

Row 2 of the spreadsheet is a row of calendar dates, ex:  A2= 5/21/2008   B2= 5/22/2008  C2= 5/23/2008 , etc.

On the access form, there is a text field called txtScheduleDate.

So, ultimately what I would like to do is to open the excel spreadsheet and "find"  or "focus" on the column where the row 2 date = the date entered in txtScheduleDate.

Possible?
