exec master..xp_cmdshell 'dtsrun /S myserver /N mydts /E'

From the command prompt, it's just:
dtsrun /S myserver /N mydts /E

The dts just runs the following activeX script:
Function Main()
Dim filePath, fileName

fileName = "\\mypath\my_excel_file.xls"

dim excelObject
set excelObject = CreateObject("Excel.Application")

excelObject.workbooks.open fileName

excelObject.Quit
set excelObject = Nothing

Main = DTSTaskExecResult_Success
End Function

Any ideas what's wrong? Thanks for your help!"
