Default Excel in Visual Basic

Hi Spike,

A user can only use the features which exist and are compatible with the
version of Excel that s(he) uses. To the best of my knowledge, therefore,
you do indeed need to be cognisant of the user's version limitations.

Thanks for the response Norman,

So, even if I make a stand alone application using Visual Basic, lets say
.NET 2005, I still need to be aware of what version of excel the computer
I
plan to use it on has?

Hi Spike,

As a rule of thumb, you should develop your application in the oldest
version of Excel which is likely to use the application.

This question is about making a program in Visual Basic using the
microsoft
excel 2003 library. If i build the project/make the program, and take
it
to
another computer, will that computer need excel 2003, or will the
program
i
made already have everything it needs built into it.
