This will bring up the ‘Data Sources’ window where you can define a new data source.

Give the Connection a meaningful name. The name can be made up of letters, numbers and the underscore, but it must start with a letter.
oEg. MyDataSourceConnection01
Optionally you can give the Web Service a meaningful description.
Click on the ‘Connections’ button to open up a diaglog box where you can choose from a list of data providers.
We are using an Excel database so scroll down and expand ‘Excel’. We are using the newer ‘OleDb’ with ‘Standard’ security.
Once this is done click ‘OK’ to return to the ‘Data Sources’ window.
Finally enter the path to the Excel database.
oEg. C:\Products.xls
