Call secure web services from Excel 2003

Hi,
I have created a web service using Visual Studio .Net (Visual Studio
Tools for Office : Excel project) and secured it using WSE 2.0. I
have added a hyperlink in the Excel sheet which when clicked invokes
the web service. It works when I invoke the non secure web service. But

when I try invoking the secure web service using the hyperlink it
completely ignores the secure invocation method.
My guess is Excel does not recognize the security related dll's and
fails to invoke the web service.
Is there any way to call a secure web service from Excel ?
thanks

Can you provide some code?
How do you call the secure web service?

It won't work with a simple URL.
How do you set the credentials?
