Default Excel as a front end to an Access database

The Client currently is using Excel for data storage.

They want to continue using Excel front end for data entry, but store the
data in an Access database.

I have googled lots of information about using VBA DAO/ADO to implement such
a solution, much of which appears to have changed little from Access 97.

I wondered if there are new features in Access 2007 to assist in this
process. I don't much like Access 2007 because of the lack of toolbars,
menubars, and Access security, but I would be interested if there are
advantages I haven't realized yet.

The VBA code I have found should work fine, but I don't want to overlook any
better solutions which I haven't stumbled over in google.

Thanks
Bill
