Default Use ADO in VB to read excel file problem

Hi all,

I have written a VB program to read the excel file via ADO.
ie :
rs.Open "SELECT * FROM [sheet1$]"

However, I find that if the excel cell contains more that 255 characters,
the recordset cannot retrieve it correctly, it will store the first 255
character and discard the rest.

Is it a ADO Excel provider limitation ?
anyone idea to solve this problem ?

Thanks
