Excel Automation for versions 97 thru 2003

I have VB.Net code that opens Excel files and imports data from them. It
works fine for all versions up to 2003 and has for over a year. We have
users updating to Office 2003 and the Excel automation breaks on those
machines. Does coding to the earliest supported version of Excel not apply
once you get to 2003?

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows.

For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
