    Ooo, that could be powerful! Ima try to make that work.

    Hopefully talking to x86 Excel from a x64 application wont be problematic. We'll see.

    It's ADO.NET, so it uses the Jet or ACE providers, just like Access. The same issue exists with regard to 64-bit systems, i.e. you must build a 32-bit app or use 64-bit ACE.
