Microsoft.Offic e.Interop.Excel doesn't like me

Ok, I've tried everything I could come up with but nothing is working.
I am creating an application which needs to post information into an
excel document. I have not yet had a chance to play with any of the
methods because I cannot pull in the Microsoft.Offic e.Interop.Excel
class. I am using Visual c# 2005 Express as my IDE, and here what I
have done so far.

I open a new project and select Project->Add Reference

Then I go to the <b>COM</b> Tab and select <b>Microsoft Excel 11.0
Object Library</b>

So from here I should be able to import
<b>Microsoft.Of fice.Interop.Ex cel</b>

Problem is, that when I type in <b>using Microsoft.Offic e.</b> I do not
get the option to choose Interop... just core. I have searched the web,
reinstalled my copy of Express, and still nothing is working. I have
decided to hold my company laptop for ransom of information. If I
cannot solve this problem my laptop will end up being destroyed... muah

If I understand you correctly, it may just be intellisense failing. Go ahead
and add the namespace and see if it compiles. The object 11 library should
make available the Excel objects.

No, I tried that. It will not compile at all. It spits out the error

Error 1 The type or namespace name 'Interop' does not exist in the
namespace 'Microsoft.Offi ce' (are you missing an assembly reference?)

The thing about it is, that it works fine on my coworkers box its only
mine that has a problem with it. The Excel and everything else is up to
date and I am truely out of idea's any help would be greatly
appreciated... (even if there is another way to recieve
interopperabili ty with Excel and C#) The only thing I have to do is
fill an existing table with values

You don't have the office PIA's installed on your system.
Get them here:

I am struggling to export Excel spreadsheets to the client machine in an ASP.Net application. Everything was great until exporting Excel got into the act.
