i have executed the code :
execute sp_addlinkedserver 'ExcelSW','Jet Excel', 'Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0','C:\Test.xls',Null,'Excel 8.0',null

and had seen that it is getting reflected in sysservers.
Now when i'm executing the statement :

SELECT Title,steps
FROM OPENROWSET('Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB 4.0'
,'Excel 8.0;Database=C:\test.xls'
,'SELECT Title,steps FROM [SheetName$]')

i'm receiving an error saying "The OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB 4.0" has not been registered".

I'm having 64bit SSMS.

Can anyone please let me know where i'm wrong?
