External table is not in the expected format.

Hello All, I am facing one issue like "External table is not in the expected format." with 2013 micro enable excel . when i am trying to open the connection string for reading the excel file i.e oleConn.Open(); .

Connection to Encrypted Excel File.

I was using Ole db connection to connect the excel.Then Read the data & display on it on screen and then save it to database after validation. But now excel is not getting connected via Ole db connection,as it is encrypted by some other program.
