"The solutions and answers provided on Experts Exchange have been extremely helpful to me over the last few years. I wear a lot of hats - Developer, Database Administrator, Help Desk, etc., so I know a lot of things but not a lot about one thing. Experts Exchange gives me answers from people who do know a lot about one thing, in a easy to use platform." -Todd S.

That is connecting excel to a database, not connecting to excel.

it would be probably easy to connect to excel using an OLEDB Data Object Library.

you can refer to this article for more info.

so, treat your Excel as a data source.
