Hi all,
i have to create an application that creates and inserts data to a .xls file. Perhaps my question may appears stupid :rolleyes:

In the target pc do i have to install MS Office to use this application correctly? Does vb.net have a native support for Offices files or it depends on an installation of this suite?

Another time i have to say "Thank You" to all people of this super forum!

Bye

You can create Excel files on a client machine without Microsoft Office installed, however to do so youll need to acquire, whether from a commercial source or a free component site, a library that can write to the Excel file format.

Of course if the client does have Microsoft Office installed its a simple matter of using the Microsoft Excel Object Library to generate a workbook.
