Gaby,

You may also want to amend the article to include the Excel 2007 methodology. Eg. using the Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0 provider with the Office 2007 System Driver installed.

And re: the 64-bit platform question, there is no neat way to use Jet of any version on an x64/ia64 instance. Either do the import from application code using the same OLEDB driver running on an x86 box or a seperate SQL Server instance on an x86 box. In a pinch you could probably run 32-bit application code on the x64 SQL server as it has access to 32-bit OLEDB drivers.

Regards,

Jacob
