Excel Objects

[esierp]

I have an application that will use the Excel 2000 Objects. Does anyone where I could find information on what files must be installed and registered to use these. The app will run on a server and I do not want to install Office on it.

Thanks

Don't know about Excel 2000, but earlier versions required a library like 'Excel8.olb' for the Excel 8.0 object library. You should have Excel installed on your development machine to pick up the object library in the available project references. Then use the package and deployment tool to package the installation and set it up on the server (which will register the necessary components). But make sure you test the install first - otherwise, you may clobber the registry on your server.

Good luck!
