Hi,
I use
SELECT *
FROM
OPENROWSET('Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0',
'Excel 8.0;Database=C:\users.xls',
'SELECT * FROM [sheet2$]')
and I get
Msg 15281, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
SQL Server blocked access to STATEMENT 'OpenRowset/OpenDatasource' of component 'Ad Hoc Distributed Queries' because this component is turned off as part of the security configuration for this server. A system administrator can enable the use of 'Ad Hoc Distributed Queries' by using sp_configure. For more information about enabling 'Ad Hoc Distributed Queries', see "Surface Area Configuration" in SQL Server Books Online.
...it says I must use sp_configure but dont know how and I am very tired can you help???

I edited your post so it wouldn't require so much scrolling.

sp_configure changes options. OR you can use SSMS and right click the server, properties, adjust the values there.
