how I can use excel 2003 and excel 2007 on my application. I add a reference to Excel 12.0 Object but this one is not compatible with Excel 2007 and i think if i add Excel 11 Object it will not run on excel 2007.
Is there any solution that I can use so that my project can be used with either excel 2003 and 2007?
I have a program that we converted to vs 2010. When then moved it to the users computer and they only have Excel 2003 on their station. How can we tell the excel reference to use 2003 (version 11) instead of 2007 (version 12). The program now is looking for 2007 version 12.
I have both Excel 2003 and Excel 2007 installed on my system. When I call oExcel = CreateObject("Excel.Application"), Excel 2003 is used in the context in my .NET code instead of Excel 2007 (which I need to be used). I have referenced the "Microsoft Excel 12.0 Object Library" but when the code runs, the 11.0 version is used.
Is it because I am using Visual Studio .Net 2003 that Excel 2007 cannot be correctly referenced or do I need to change a reference or setting?
I have a windows form and I am attempting to create an excel file from a datatable that has already been created and i'm hitting a snag - the error is: The ':' character, hexadecimal value 0x3A, cannot be included in a name."I have a button to start the Export process, here's the

Assume all traces of Office 2003 will be removed from the computer.I understand that I will still be able to use .xls files. I'm asking about automating Excel through the COM interop from outside Excel. When I add a reference to Excel to a VB project, it gives me a different version of the dll for different versions of Excel. If a program was compiled with a reference to Office 2003's dll, will it need to be recompiled for Office 2007? Will the code need to be updated to use the new dll?
I have noticed that the immediate window in VS 2010 behaves differently when debugging a C# project and a VB.NET project, although I haven't been able to find any specific documentation of this difference.
For C# projects, I can simply type in any expression, and it will be evaluated and displayed, i.e.
[Code]...
All other expressions exhibit the same behavior, including simple math such as '1 + 2'. Sometimes the error message is different though, as 1 + 2 results in the error 'Labels that are numbers must be followed by colons.'Is there a way to 'fix' this behavior and make the VB.NET immediate window behave more like the C# one? Having to type a ? in front of every statement can be a pain when using it frequently.
I have two multiline textboxes, and I want to compare and count the text differences between them. The algorithm appears very complex.. To be exact, I need to check for the spelling mistakes (spaces and newlines can be ignored..)
I have built an Access 2007 database with some data stored in it. I have managed to export data using VB2008 from that database to Excel 2007 and have it automatically draw charts based on this data and a query in the Visual Basic Code. One of the results looks like this:
I have a application VB.net which is working fine for office 2003.But one of the user has installed office 2007.I dont have the knowledge of BindingRedirect .
I'm developing a app in VB 2005 to connect to a Access 2003/2007 DB, I manage to connect to it but I can't write to it, do I have to enable something to make it work?
When I load it onto a WinVista machine running Office 2007, I get the following error the microsoft.jet.oledb.4.0 provider is not registered I was doing a little research and I guess 2007 changed a few things? Introduced something called ACE? I tried using "Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0", etc but I get a similar error to the above...
I converted one of my databases from 2003 to 2007 and am getting the following error 13 type mismatch with 2007 (did not happen with 2003 version) with the following code:
Thanks for your help!

I have started a new blank project for VB 2007. I have taken the old code (VB 2003) and added it to the project.The line marked below worked on the old VB, now it does not. I get the following error:
Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
Troubleshooting tips:
Use the "new" keyword to create an object instance.
Check to determine if the object is null before calling the method.I have tried several forms of using the "New" keyword and still get the error.

I am designing a shared add-in using VB.Net 2008 and VSTO that has to fire up when any MS Office App is started. It has to work for both 2002, 2003 and 2007 applications. I have managed to put together a working add-in that pops up a test message stating the version of Office and the Application name and tested this across all the apps ok.
The next part of the solution is to code the application specific code that needs to run for document auditing and corporate protective marking as well as, for example; in Excel checking that all the Add-Ins are linked to the Network Add-Ins folder.
My approach from now was going to be to late bind against the application object and set one of my typed (e.g. Excel) application object references which exist in the code to this object.
I am in the right forum. My apologies if this is a stupid question, I am a relitively inexperienced coder.
I have a VB.NET program that writes to Excel 2003. On testing the program works fine as long as I add the PIA's to the target machine prior to use. To avoid this problem when this roles out to clients, I wish to add the PIA's as a prerequisite. I have sorced the redistributable versions for 2003 here:
I have a .NET winforms app that automates Excel and checks for a worksheet password. The requirements are to be able to detect
1) that the protection is turned off
2) that the password is removed (protected but there is no password)
3) that the password matches the correct password from a database
To meet the second requirement the program calls the Worksheet.Unprotect command with a null string, capturing the error. If error as expected, the 3rd check is made. If no error, then the Unprotect worked without a password ==> password was removed.
The code sample below has these checks.The application can do this fine with Office 2003. I have since had my dev machine updated to Office 2007 and it no longer works as it did. When I call the Worksheet.Unprotect, Excel prompts for the password!
I need to know how this should be accomplished in the new version of Excel or if there is a way to reference the old PIA. No matter what if I set a reference to Excel 11 it is replaced with the PIA for 12 in the GAC.
'return true if unprotect of worksheet does not generate an error 'all other errors will bubble up 'return false if specific error is "Password is invalid..." Try
I am trying to retrieve the data from EXCEL 2003 spreadsheet from row 8 onwards because from Row 1 to Row 7 the row is merged columns from A1 to K1, A2 to K2, A3 to K3, A4 to K4, A5 to K5, A6 to K6, A7 to K7.
