Re: How to open an excel file

Usually on those interop assemblies, the "leading underscore" name
represents the default COM interface.  That actuall class to instantiate
is the name with "Class" appended on to it:

_Application app = new ApplicationClass();

Subject: [DOTNET-WINFORMS] How to open an excel file


Hello,


        I have Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel add as a Reference as well
as
Microsoft.Office.Core and I have the following line of code:

private Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel._Application ExcelObj;
ExcelObj = new Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel._Application();

And I get the error
Cannot create an instance of the abstract class or interface
Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel._Application

What am I doing wrong???
