Question : Import data using excel file into SQL 2005 Database

I have registered msjet40.dll and msjetloedb40.dll on my mssql database server. But it prompts with the following error.
OLE DB provider 'Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0' cannot be used for distributed queries because the provider is configured to run in single-threaded apartment mode.
I am using 64 bit windows OS and 64 bit MS SQL 2005 enterprise edition. Please let me know if there is a workaround for that or I have o go with 32 bit version of SQL 2005 along with 32 OS.

Answer : Import data using excel file into SQL 2005 Database

I'd rather put it on the same server. If you're not going to import Gbytes of data, the extra load on the server should be minimal.
