Link to Excel Spreadsheet from Access form

[Guest]

My access db relies on information that first must be reformatted using
Excel. On my Add New Record form, I want to link to this Excel spreadsheet
using a command button. How do I specifiy the specific spreadsheet to be
called up? I'm assuming I'll use an On Click procedure, but need help
writing the Visual basic code. Thanks

Thank you for your quick respons, but.... it doens't work.
Find here some code I used; maybe there is some mismatch in the used syntax:

Dim oSource As Object
Dim StrSource As String
Set oSource = CreateObject("Excel.Application")


'Not Allocated.xls
StrSource = "I:\be\_agb\agfaproj\logistiek\WOS\Not Allocated.xls"
oSource.Workbooks.Open (StrSource)
'oSource.Visible = True
oSource.Run ("RefreshAll")

'this doens't work
objActiveWkb.Close Savechanges:=True
'this doens't work
oSource.Close Savechanges:=True

oSource.Workbooks.Close (StrSource)
