Default How do I access different versions of Excel from one .NET executable?
OK, you are saying that if my program references the Office 2003
PIA (Microsoft Excel 11.0 Object Library) this will work with later
versions of Excel, but not the reverse. This is actually the
opposite of what I would have expected. Any idea what is going on
here? And is this likely to hold when Office 2010 comes out.

Usually it is most easy to install the earliest version of excel you want to
use on the development machine. Then reference that version instead in your
project.

You might be able to install them side by side so no need to uninstall 2007.
