Default Excel 2007 development problem

My system was working fine with visual studio 2005, office 2003 and VSTO. I
made the mistake and upgraded to office 2007 and installed VSTO SE. Now I
cannot load my Excel programs into visual studio and cannot create new Excel
projects in visual studio. I keep getting this error:

A compatible version of MS Office Excel is not installed on this computer.
You must install MS Office Excell 2003 SP1 and VS 2005 tools for office
runtime.

Any help is appreciated.

Hi curious

Why not use System restore to a point before the upgrade

Did you enable NET Programmability Support when you installed Office 2007?
By default, this setting is False. Try re-running Office 2007 setup and
ensure that NET Programmability Support is installed.

Default Excel 2007 development problem

Hi

A lot of people tell me to wait for a year

Smart people

There are always problems with new software.

I am running Vista an Office 2007 now for a few weeks now on my main system
and I have format my system two times because of big problems ( Not by MS programs).

thought maybe this is a problem with my setup and there is a simple solution

Maybe, post it in visual studio newsgroup.

But if it is possible install the software on a VPC first so you can try it.

Does this mean it is stupid to jump on a new Microsoft software as soon as it
is out? A lot of people tell me to wait for a year and let Microsoft remove
all bugs from its new sotfware before getting it but I will never learn. I
thought maybe this is a problem with my setup and there is a simple solution
to it; but it seems to me nobody on this board is even using office 2007.

Chip,

Office 2007 did not ask about .NET programability during installation. It
didn't even show the normal progress bar; it just kept going for 15 minutes
and my office 2003 installation was upgraded to office 2007. Office works
fine by itself but not through Visual Studio 2005. Is it possible to change
the programability setting from inside office after setup?

It won't ask you, you have to go into 'custom...' or full install

Go to Control PanelAdd remove programs and click on office...as it runs
select custom and check .NET programmability

It doesn't ask you whether to install or not. It is one of the options in
the series of dropdown/treeview options settings that are displayed when
configure the install. This is where you chose "Install On My Computer" or
"Install On First Use" or "Don't Install" for the various applications.

I would post on the VSTO group, but I have both (all) working, however I had
a fresh install (in this order) of

Office 2003
Office 2007
VS2005
VSTO2005
VSTO2005SE

I suspect the removal of 2003 and the order of installation has screwed with
something

Nick,

I did what you recommended; In Control Panel i selected Add, Remove
Programs
and selected Office 2007 and Change. DOTNet Programability is selected;
that
is, it is set to run from this computer for all office components such as
Access and Excel. I have a full installaton of Office 2007.

As I mentioned, I have a full installation of Office 2007; in other words,
all the options in the series of dropdown/treeview options settings that are
displayed when
configure the install are set to "Install On My Computer." I can create
Office 2007 and Office 2003 Add-Ins. I can also create InfopathFormTemplates.
The only problems are creating Excel workbook or Word document projects.
