difficulties with office version

[emta41]

Hello,

I have a problem. I've created a simple function that open an Excel file. In my PC I have Office XP. But the machines where the executable files will run has different office versions (97, 2000, 2003). There are some mistake in Office versions or noncompatibility between.

Do you know how to resolve this problem?

Probably I have to use acces via ODBC and Excell driver in spite of active X again.

Thank You for advice or help....

The code with NI library works every time, but only in version of MS office in which it was created. If I want to use different version of MS office, I have to re-compile and rebuild whole application with the different version of excell. The problem is probably in different number of properties for excell Active X control. Any advice....?

You should try building and testing your application for the oldest version of Excel you intend to support. The Excel Automation server should be able to handle applications built againsts older versions of itself.

I hope this helps.
