Hi
We have a Vb.Net Windows application that’s about a year old. The
application takes data from our SQL DB and creates an excel SS and emails
them to customers.
However, we now have PCs in the office that are using a newer Ver of Office
and the application will not run on their PC.

Is it possible and if so how can I
1.) Check what Ver of Office the PC is running
2.) Use the compatible Excel drivers for that PC
All in one application?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Brian

Hi Brian,

A few of questions:
What are the errors you experience when running the app and when do those
errors occur?
How is the conversion made when converting into the spread sheet?
Does the code use the Excel lib? If so, which version?
Do you have access to the original source code?
