'Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0' 64x Sql Server and 86x Office?


The error:

OLE DB provider 'Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0' cannot be used for distributed queries because the provider is configured to run in single-threaded apartment mode.

And the answers I'm seeing is a conflict between 64 bit Sql Server and 32 bit Office. Is there a way to run an openrowset on Excel into Sql Server?

insert into dbo.FiscalCalendar 
select * from 
openrowset('Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0',
'Excel 12.0 Xml;Database=C:\Users\uname\Desktop\fy11.xlsx;',
'Select * from [Sheet1]')
