Reading an XL file with T-SQL

I am trying to read an XL spreadsheet using T-SQL. Specifically the OPENDATASOURCE syntax. I am having a terrible time getting it to work. Has anyone done this and how?

Either your problem was solved there(or somewhere else) or you should continue with that thread. It makes it easier to get help.

Thanks.
