Could Not Find Installable ISAM

I have loaded VB6 on to a Windows XP machine. I started with building a Project1 on the VB using the Standard EXE. On the standard Project I am using the Form1 to build from. I moved a Data Icon over to the Form1. In going to the Properites I want to attach to the Data1 field my Excel data base. At first I started receiving a message the "Could Not Find Installable ISAM". I loaded SP6 on the PC along with MDAC. Now the attached file will not give me an error message. When I placed the Text box onto the Form1 and set the Properties for a specific field it now returns with the Message "Couldn't find Installable ISAM. Basically I am not connecting to my Excel database. What and how can I attach to the database using the Properties Window? I see varied items that discuss VB and how to set script. I find it is easier for me to use the Properties window. What is the proper procedure for building a VB6 object using data from an Acess DB./
