COM interface and .NET version

[spreadform]

Hi Gary,

I'm reading the COM section in the Help file, which instructs me to create an Excel.exe.config file with the .NET versions to be used. I have v1.1, v2.0, v3.0 and v4.0 of .NET installed, all of which I need to run various applications. There is a registry key that is also used to set the .NET version for Office applications. For Excel, it is at two places on my machine:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\.NETFramework\policy\AppPatch\v2.0.50727.00000\excel.exe\{2CCAA9FE-6884-4AF2-99DD-5217B94115DF}
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\.NETFramework\policy\AppPatch\v4.0.30319.00000\excel.exe\{2CCAA9FE-6884-4AF2-99DD-5217B94115DF}

Both 'Target Version' keys specify v1.1.4322. Doesn't this override the Excel.exe.config setting? Or is it the other way around?

Hi,

What version of Excel are you running?

Excel 2007 (v12)

Hi,

You don't need to create the Excel.exe.config file with that version.
