Missing Microsoft Excel as option in SQL Server da

问题:

I'm running SQL Server 2012 on a 64bit Windows Server 2012 R2.
I don't have MS Office installed.
I now notice that when I start Start->Program Files->Microsoft SQL Server 2012->Import and Export Data (64-bit) the MS Excel file option is missing from the datasource dropdown. How can I get that option without having to install Excel or Office on my server?

Had to install this driver: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/confirmation.aspx?id=13255

After that it works :)
