can anyone point me in the direction of material that would relate to,

i'm trying to take some data from a dataview in vb.net 2003 and create an
excel file.
i've read thru the kbs at
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/301982/EN-US/ and
http://support.microsoft.com/default...;EN-US;Q306022
and while they seem to work with my office 2003 installs, my dev machines
office 97 install throws several exceptions.

thanks
