I believe that Excel doesn't support the standard SQL syntax and doesn't work well in multi-user environment. You can create Web pages that display data from Excel, but you will not be able to update and delete the data (it will be read-only).
To use CCS to display Excel data on the Web you can create the standard System ODBC/DSN connection on your computer that utilizes the Excel ODBC driver, then use it in CCS.
Or you can use the JET driver by specifying the following connection string in CCS Connection settings:
Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=C:\File.xls;Extended Properties='Excel 8.0;HDR=Yes;IMEX=1'
(replace C:\File.xls with the real file name and assign IUSR permissions to the folder where the Excel is located)

The main difference between using the ODBC and JET drivers is that when using ODBC you will need to create named ranges in your Excel worksheet. The JET connection doesn't require named ranges and may work better anyway.

I don't know how to use Unicode in Excel, but for example I tried to copy some text in Russian and Chinese from various Websites and pasting it into Excel, then the Excel displayed this text correctly. An ASP application created with CCS also correctly displayed the grid that contains such text. I didn't see any problems.
BTW, are you asking how to enter Unicode text into Excel, or how to display on the Web the Unicode text already stored in Excel?

Excel and Database are mutually exclusive :-)

But what if the Excel file is protected by the password to open, the password to modify or both of them?

I really need your kind help.

Thanks.:-)
