I use the Interop's; like so:

Public Function OpenExcelWorkbook(Optional ByVal xlsPath As String = Nothing, _
   Optional ByVal isVisible As Boolean = True)As xlsReturns

   Try
      'initialize
      xlsApp = New Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Application

      'check for path
      If xlsPath <> Nothing Then
         'open indicated workbook
         xlsWrkbk = xlsApp.Workbooks.Open(xlsPath)
      Else
         'open blank workbook
         xlsWrkbk = xlsApp.Workbooks.Add()
      End If

      'turn off alerts
      xlsApp.DisplayAlerts = False

      'check for hidden workbook
      xlsApp.Visible = isVisible

      'set return value
      OpenExcelWorkbook = xlsReturns.Ok
   Catch ex As Exception
      MessageBox.Show(ex.Message)
   
      'set return value
      OpenExcelWorkbook = xlsReturns.OpenError
   End Try

End Function

The return values are enum's I set up myself.
