Hello Eneryone,
I am having a problem. I have written a little app that will take a text
"pipe" delimited file and place all of the values in to an Excel
spreadsheet. It works great on any of my XP Pro machines. When I install the
app on a Win2K Pro machine, I get the following error message:

If i had to guess i'd say you're using different versions of the .net
framework, or more probably, different versions of excel between the two
computers.
You may be able to change your code to use latebinding and avoid this
problem. Otherwise I think you'll need excel-version specifc COM interop
assemblies..
