Default Automation Error: The system cannot find file specified


http://developer.kde.org/documentati...atibility.html

But this is more an issue with .Net/Interrop than Excel.

Assuming the file is in the correct location and it compiles to a valid

DLL
for use Excel, at a guess, is broken Binary Compatibility an issue ?

Hi,

I am using Microsoft Excel Professional Edition 2003. I am accessing

methods
in a .Net dll by referencing its tlb in the macro of the excel. The

tlb
is
created while building the .Net solution by selecting the "Regoister

for
COM
Interop" option in the project properties.

Both the dll and excel file have been undergoing changes and working
perfectly for over six months. But since yesterday (after changing

some
code
in the excel macro and referencing the newly build tlb), I am getting
"Automation Error
The system cannot find specified file."
The method to create the tlb hasnt changed. I am at a loss as to why

this
error is occuriing. Any help in this regard is welcome.

Regards,
Shilpa
