what is the connection string for using the :
ActiveX Data Objects 2.8 library and ActiveX Data Objects Recordset 2.8 library

to access an excel 2007 Application.version 12.0 Macro enabled workbook?

I am running this under XP.

In expectation of your help: thank you

PS. I am using one worksheet as a data table.
PPS. I have it running happily using the ActiveX Data Objects 6.0 library under Vista but have found the target machine only has 2.8 and it will be problematic to use anything different.
