  Hi

  I think you may have misunderstood my question. All the articles explain how to use ODBC. I am asking specifically if there is a way to connect to Excel from SSRS without using ODBC.

  Thanks

  Hello,

  We can only use ODBC driver if we want to directly use a Excel file as the data source to design a report. By the way, we can import data from Excel to SQL Server. Here is an KB article for your reference, please see:

  Hi Craig,

  This is maybe a little late but you can connect to Excel using OLE Db, the connection string would look something like this:

  Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=C:\MyExcel.xls;Extended Properties="Excel 8.0;HDR=Yes;IMEX=1";

  And then you would be able to use Access style SQL.
