Can't Deploy Interop.Excel.DLL
Feb 6, 2006
I've developed a vb.net app which works great on my dev machine, both within the IDE and as a compiled executable. But when I deploy it to a user workstation, I receive the following:
Unhandled exception has occurred in your application. If you click Continue, the application will ignore this error and attempt to continue. If you click Quit, the application will close immediately.
Could not load file or assembly Microsoft Office Interop.Excel, Version=11.0.0.0,Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=71e9bce111e9429c' or one of its dependencies. The system cannon find the file specified.

I want to encapsulate the use of Excel Interop to make it easier to use somehow in a reuseable library.So far, I have written some tests that work good altogether, except that between each test, I force Excel to quite so that it does have handle on the test file no more in order to be able to delete.Once I quit the application instance between after each of my tests, Excel seems to be no longer responding, causing Windows to display "Excel has stopped working and is looking for a solution"
message. This message lasts a few seconds, meanwhile Excel is closing, causing the hang on the file to occur and my tests to throw an exception like "Cannot access file because it is being used by another process..."

I 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.

I'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.

Anyone have code to set margins(top,left,right,bottom) using excel interop and vb.net. I think it must be part of the worksheet object but maybe the workbook object. Having a tough time finding an example.

I'm kinda new to using VB.NET and certainly with the Excel Interop.I have the impression that I'm doing something wrong in these simple procedures. I keep getting errors on them:
[Code]...
The first procedure fills a combobox with all the worksheet names of the workbook.The second procedure copies all cells in the selected worksheet to an array.The error is the following: System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.I think the error is in the cleanup part, when I set the objects to nothing and close everything. Can someone confirm if this is good or wrong code and maybe point me in the right direction?

I Programe a COM Library in VS2008 to use in Excel , but I'm stuck with an error that I don't understand.
I use this two classes , that compile and register OK. One Class QBitems return a nongeneric collection of QBItem but when I tried to use the Add and/or Remove Method, I receive the following error in Excel VBA :
Run-time Error '438': Object doesn't support this property or method.
I added a class (SImpleClass) in the library and I called from VBA it returned the QItems collection without problem.
NEW: When I replace the QBItem object with a string in the Collection QBItems everytthing works OK. It looks like interface doesn't like to pass an object like QBitem class
Excel/VBA:
Sub Pru()
Dim obj As New CollectionCOMClass.SimpleClass
Dim Itms As New CollectionCOMClass.QBItems

The Current Setup:So, I can use the following code to save a file as an XLS:
_myWorkbook.SaveAs("FileName.xls", Excel.XlFileFormat.xlWorkbookNormal)
I can also use the following code to save a file as an XLSX (Since I use Office 2010):
_myWorkbook.SaveAs("FileName.xlsx", Excel.XlFileFormat.xlWorkbookDefault)
I have tried (unsuccessfully) to save the file as an XLSX using the following code:
_myWorkbook.SaveAs("FileName.xlsx", Excel.XlFileFormat.xlExcel12)Why does this not work? Last I checked, Excel 12 was Excel 2007 (a version that supports XLSX). Am I missing something?
I get a This extension can not be used with the selected file type error)

I am trying to Import an XML file into Excel and then Export the data to CSV. I did the Import Data steps manually in Excel while recording a Macro. I am basically using those commands in VB.NET.
Try

I am developing a fairly comprehensive Excel add-in, applying a lot of ops. Take a workbook, save under new name, apply actions (add names, change formulae, etc). Generally it works fine, but from time to time .Net throws an InvalidCastException on virtually any of my CTypes. When I acknowledge the error and run the code again (without quitting Excel) on the exact same Excel workbook, no error occurs. The InvalidCastException occurs maybe in 40% of all tries, otherwise the add-in succeeds.

I am working on a class that generates a report in Excel (any version).I need to perform a bit of ad-hoc labelling on a chart, for which I have created a textbox (i.e. Excel drawing object).I've managed to get as far as creating the textbox and setting it's text using Shape.TextFrame.Characters.Text. Ideally, I'd like to set the font characteristics as well, but I can't see how to do this. I can't seem to find much info about this anywhere, so hopefully someone's dealt with this before and can give me a few pointers.

I am writing a function to export data to Excel using the Office Interop in VB .NET. I am currently writing the cells directly using the Excel worksheet's Cells() method:
worksheet.Cells(rowIndex, colIndex) = data(rowIndex)(colIndex)
This is taking a long time for large amounts of data. Is there a faster way to write a lot of data to Excel at once?

We're exporting a set of data using .net interop to Excel and our template file contains some images. Depending on the amount of columns we're exporting we want to position the image X pixels left of the last column depending on the image size/width. Using the record a macro function moving the Image around is a 'no op'. Setting the Shape.Left position also won't work.
