Hello,
I am using VS 2005 under Windows 2000, and have a requirement to interact with Excel.
I figure the easiest way to do this is by using the PIA from microsoft so I can just Import the Excel Interop into my project.
So, I got local admin rights and downloaded and installed the PIA. I then found that my version of office was not SP1 so I upgraded to SP3 and then installed the PIA again.
However, back in my project I have added a reference to Excel, but I do not see "Interop" under Office, I just see "Core"
This means I cannot use : Imports Excel = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.
Also, when I check references again after restarting, I do not see any Interop references under .NET or COM.
Why is it that Interop just doesn't seem to be installed (I see it under Add/Remove programs)
Thanks for any help
Alan.
