Default which odbc excel driver is the best?

Hi,

I found two odbc excel drivers:
1)
objconn.Open "Driver={Microsoft Excel Driver (*.xls)};" & _
"FIL=excel 8.0;" & _
"DefaultDir=d:\;" & _
"MaxBufferSize=2048;" & _
"PageTimeout=5;" & _
"DBQ=C:\excel.xls;ReadOnly=0;"

2) objconn.open("DBQ=C:\excel.xls;DefaultDir=C:\l;Dri ver={Microsoft Excel
Driver (*.xls)};ReadOnly=0;")

Are there differences? Which one is the best?

Thanks
Andre

Hi Andre,

These are just two minor variations on exactly the same connection
string. There is only one ODBC driver for Excel.
