Getting The Error "Application" Is Ambiguous In The Namespace 'microsoft.office.interop.excel'?
Sep 1, 2010I have a project which opens a simple Excel file and populates it. It was working fine until this morning, when it has suddenly started giving me the error above: 'Application' is ambiguous in the namespace 'Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel'.I haven't changed any project references, or anything within the file itself. The references include Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel. The imports statement is there: importsMicrosoft.Office.InteropThe object declaration is also complete: Dim xl AsMicrosoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Application which is the line that's giving me the error!

Using The Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.dll Library; Does Excel Need To Be On The End User's Machine
Nov 22, 2011I have been doing a lot of reading on this topic and most folks seem to agree that having Excel is required to use the COM Interop libraries. However they are never specific as to where that should be installed. Does it need to be installed on the machine I am developing on or does it need to be on every machine that I deploy to?
Edit: I should mention that this is desktop development/deployment targeted for all Windows machines.
Turn A Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Chart Object Into A Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.Chart Object?
Aug 5, 2010Basically I've coded an Excel 2007 project in VB.NET 2010 that allows you to create charts with a fair amount of interactivity. I want the user to be able to save and reopen this workbook and still have that interactivity in any already-created charts, so they don't have to re-create them.
When I create the charts, I use Sheet1.Controls.AddChart(...), which returns a Microsoft.Office.Tools.Excel.Chart with which I can handle events and such. However, when I reopen the file and look through the Sheet1.Controls collection, there are no Chart objects. Accessing the charts through Sheet1.ChartObjects.Chart gives me Interop Charts, when I need the Tools Charts.

Could Not Load File Or Assembly 'Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel'?
Apr 16, 2010I have a program that reads data from excel.
I use:Imports Microsoft.Office.Interop as well as a Reference from the "COM" tab called "Microsoft Excel 11.0 Object Library"
I built my program then copied the .exe from the inDebug folder to a location on my company's server. I then double clicked the .exe and it ran as I expected it would.My boss then tried (from another computer) and he gets this error:See the end of this message for details on invoking just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

Using Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel Without Actually Having Excel?
May 1, 2011I'm using Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel in VB.Net in order to export an .xls file as a .pdf file. This was the only method I could find without relying on third party software to be installed on the running machine or using an expensive add-on to Visual Studio. This method requires opening excel and saving a file through the code.
My problem is that I only have a trial version of Microsoft office as I never actually use it. Well the limitation of times I can open it is up as I have run the program enough times for debugging purposes and now I can't continue development on this application. Is there a development kit for visual studio that provides the API I need for this functionality without actually having Office installed? I don't need Microsoft Office so I don't want to have to buy a full version just to develop and test an application.
I've looked at some options like this, but there is very specific formatting that needs to remain intact in the .xls for the conversion to .pdf that doesn't seem to work if I use an intermediary format. I've also read a little bit about the openOffice API, but is that compatible with .Net? If so, can someone point me to a tutorial that explains how to use the API with .Net? Specifically VB if possible, but I can work with C# code.

Microsoft Office Installed - Warning 2 Unable To Find Dependency 'INTEROP.MICROSOFT.OFFICE.CORE'
Jul 23, 2010So I have this error.
[Code]...
So I'm guessing it has something to do with the fact that I don't have office loaded on my computer. Now I have another laptop, with office that I loaded this project on, and it works fine. So do I have to load office on this computer, or can I just reference something?

Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel : Disable Select Locked Values In A Worksheet?
Aug 29, 2011I am using the Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel library in VB.Net on an excel sheet that is protected. All of the protected settings are working fine except that I cannot set Select Locked Cells which shows when you are using the Excel protect sheet interface but I cannot see how to set this to false using the library. I have tried all of the different values in the protect method but none of them toggle the value.Excel protected sheet menu Below is the code snippet I am using to get my workSheet, populate some values, and then protect the sheet. GetWorkSheet is an internal method which will return a WorkSheet object, and invoiceData is a datatable which has the data which is being added to the spreadsheet.
Dim newSheet As Worksheet = getWorkSheet(newSheetName)
' Make the current Work Sheet active so that it will be accepting the data.

newSheet.Unprotect(sheetPassword)

View 2 RepliesCan't Get Microsoft.office.interop Referenced Anywhere?
Nov 5, 2010I have been using Excel in vb.net for years and no problem but I have a new app and nothing is working. First I can't get Microsoft.office.interop referenced anywhere, which was weird. Then I can't instantiate Excel App.. Dim pExcel_App as New Excel.Application -- this gives me error "New cannot be used on an interface??But I can do this..Dim pExcel_App As New Excel._ExcelApplication -- where did this come from?Then I can't put anything into cells Dim wkbSheet As Excel.Worksheet wkbSheet.Cells(1,1) = "Title" --- this give me an error "Expression is a value and therefore cannot be the target of an assignment"
THe really weird thing is that I have an old app open at the same time that is just fine with all this code. AND the intellisense is different for each cell.The good one sets is as a range, the bad one says it is an object???I re-installed the MS PIA's but this didn't help.

Specify V11 (with V11 & V12 Installed) Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word
Sep 2, 2010I am working on a legacy VB.NET application that uses Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word, with Office 2003 installed on the server. When I publish my site, even though my config file clearly shows v11: The site will crash saying v12 couldn't be found: Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word, Version=12.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=71e9bce111e9429c' or one of its dependencies. The located assembly's manifest definition does not match the assembly reference. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80131040)
Note: I currently have Office 2003 & 2007 installed on my dev machine, also, when looking @ references I am given the option of selecting v11 or v12 (so v11 is def. there). Within a page on the site the page does an import statement for Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word. Is it possible to specify the version at this point, or any way to force it to use v11 without me uninstalling my v12?
