Remarks
The ADOConnection property exposes the Microsoft Excel connection to the data provider, allowing the user to write code within the context of the same session that Excel is using.
The ADOConnection property is available only for sessions where the data source is an OLE DB data source. When there is no ADO session, the query will result in a run-time error. The ADOConnection property can be used for any OLE DB–based cache with ADO. The ADO connection object can be used with ADO MD for finding information about OLAP cubes on which the cache is based.
