VB.Net: Create Excel File/App?
 

I am having some trouble manipulating Excel files. Currently I am
trying to create and then close an Excel file/application with the following
code. It works fine, except it leaves an EXCEL application open, which I can
see in the Task Manager. I have tried oExcel.Dispose(), but this generates
an error. How can I correct this code so that the object is properly
disposed of? Thanks!

Public Sub CreateExcelFile(Optional ByVal sFileName As String =
"")
If Len(sFileName) 0 Then FileName = sFileName
If Not Len(FileName) 0 Then
MsgBox("The 'FileName' property must be set before the
'CreateExcelFile' method may be utilized", , "ERROR")
Exit Sub
End If
oExcel = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
With oExcel
.SheetsInNewWorkbook = 1
oExcel = .Workbooks.Add
.Save(FileName)
.Quit()
End With
oExcel = Nothing
End Sub
