Question : Link excel spreedsheet to Sql Server table

Need some guidance.  I have a user that uses an excel spreadsheet as a table. It needs to be moved into a Sql Server database.  This is fine. Problem is the user wants to use excel as the front end. Now my problem is I see how to import from Sql server but not link like in Access.  Can you link directly?  Ive been searching for an answer but mostly see using ADO as the answer.  If ADO is the answer, how do I implement the code? What I mean is do I check for changes when user moves from row to row?  Or is there a way to capture all the changes and run an update all at once.  Any suggestions or examples would be appreciated.  Thanks in advance.  Using Excel 2003 and SQL Server 2005
