I think the issue is specifically that linking spreadsheets has been disabled. If you use automation then you don't have an issue. IO know that because I am using automation (successfully) myself.

I have a client where I create a rather elaborate worksheet from a template in Access and push data out to the Excel worksheet, then open it up for editing. When the worksheet is saved, I have a lot of code behind the worksheet that pushes the data back into the Access tables. The worksheets are not linked however. I use automation to do the data transfers. Am I in trouble here or did I inadvertently dodge this bullet? The article refers to linked tables and spreadsheets.
