cannot find Microsoft.offic e.Interop

hi,

Two questions, i dont know if the cause if these two problems is the same.
1.
As soon as i Add->Reference -> Microsoft Excel 11.0 Object library. It
gives an error
'The referenced component 'Excel' could not found.

I downloaded PIA from MS website this morning.After a bit of digging i found
in the /assembly folder that Microoft/office/interop/excel.dll is present
but the version is 10.0.4504. I am wondering whether it makes a difference
and causes the error ? Do i need to get the latest PIA (version 11) to
colate with MS Excel 11.0?

2.

When i try to import Interop namespace, the intelisense does not show it
after Microsoft.offic e, instead it shows 'core'. How do i get Interop

Everything was working fine before i installed Office 2003 this morning and
started referncing it.

Anyhelp is appreciated.

Download the PIAs from here:

Page:
-----

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en

Direct Link:
------------

http://download.microsoft.com/downlo...235/oxppia.exe

From what I remember, you extract them to a folder of your choice & then run
the batch file to register them

In your project, click 'add reference', click browse & find the
'Microsoft.Offi ce.Interop.Exce l.dll' file, click 'open' & then click 'ok'.
You will now see the Excel object listed under refences.

Switch to the code view of the form & type:

Imports Excel = Microsoft.Offic e.Interop

That will give you exactly what you wanted.

I hope this helps

Crouchie,

Browsing to the microsoft.offic e.interop worked perfect. Thanks.
However, when i use this method i am not able to specify which Excel Object
library i am referncing ie; 10.0 or 11.0.

Secondly,
I want to use 11.0 , but when i referance it, the IDE again warns me that
'referance component 'excel' cannot be found'. which is not the case when i
referance 10.0
Any suggestions, as to why i get a warning when i refer to Excel 11.0 object
library will be highly appreciated.

Now, take a look at this article:

http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;822750

Example:

Private WithEvents xlApp As Excel.Applicati on
Private xlBook As Excel.Workbook

In a sub()

xlApp = CreateObject("E xcel.Applicatio n")
xlBook = xlApp.Workbooks .Add()
....
End sub

or see this page:

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/301982/

You'll get the idea

I hope this helps

ISSUE (reposted) =========================== Can someone please explain to me why I can't get the MS Word Interop assembly to work in my VS2005 project? For many people, they say they add the reference and it works, however when I add the reference the application can't find it. Not sure why it says the system cannot find the file when it exists in that location? Please help, thanks in advance... GOAL ===========================

I'm writing a project that does Visio automation. I'm writing it in C+ +/CLI because it needs to reference a good amount of native C++ code. One way to call the Visio API, of course, is to use the COM interface provided in Visio SDK. However, a colleague of mine has been using Microsoft.Office.Interop.Visio in his VB.NET project, which is far more convenient than COM. I thought I could do the same in C++/CLI, but it didn't work....
