Registering Office Web Component (MSOWCF.dll) on Server without Of

[InteropNut]

Hi,

My ASP.NET application uses the MSOWCF.dll COM component (ms office
functions) and it works fine on my computer with MS Office installed. But I
am trying to upload the application to my web server which does not have MS
office installed. When I execute the application on the server I get an
error message that says that the classid of the MSOWCF.dll is either invalid
or not registered. How do I go about registering this COM? I've tried using
gacutil but I get an error message that says MSOWCF.dll does not have a
strong name. Any ideas on how to go about solving this problem? I would not
be able to install MS Office on the server. So any other way to resolve this?

Thanks!

maybe this will help(paste on a cmd line)

regsvr32 MSOWCF.dll

Yes, I tried it but it says: "F:\Interop.MSOWCFLib.dll was loaded, but the
DLLRegisterServer entry point was not found. The file can not be registered."

Any ideas?

Thanks!
