Prevent Excel and Access access to SQL 2000

Hi,

I'd like to prevent Excel and Access (well any Microsoft Office
application) from gaining access to a SQL 2000 instance, via an
ODBC connection.

If this we're SQL 2005, I create a logon trigger, and just kill off
unwanted connections.

Can anyone suggest how I can achieve this is SQL 2000?

Thanks,

James.

A scheduled job that runs once a minute, and which looks at the
program_name column in sysprocesses and kills it off if the name
is unsuitable. Users that knows how to write a connection string,
can work around that though. (Then again, they can work around your
login trigger on SQL 2005 as well.)

I've created a report with many subreports of aggregate data.

Is there a way to code the button that's available in the query window--microsoft excel icon that exports to excel. I know transferspreadsheet will do this---but I want the query, which is in a pivot table view, to be exported as a pivot, not just a data list. Does this code exist? Is it transferspreadsheet but with a twist?
