example of connecting binding source to Excel spreadsheet

[bill]

All,

Can anyone point me to an example of how to connect a dataset to a
spreadsheet. I have done this in the past but cannot now seem to
resurrect the connection. When I go through the wizard I end up with
the following:

An error occurred while retrieving the information from
the database:

Selecting objects of type 'procedure' is not
supported

There must be something inadequate about the Excel 2007 file that I am
trying to use as a data source, but I cannot figure out what that
might be.

TIA,

Bill
