Excel lib reference included in proj - why Excel obj not recognize

[Guest]

Hello,

I need to open an Excel workbook from my vb.net app. I made a reference to
the Excel com object model (Office 2003) - Excel library 11.0

But when I try to write code - I don't see Excel in the intellisense
dropdown. Do I need to include an import statement?

Dim xl As ???Excel... No excel

Any suggestions appreciated.

Thanks,
Rich

I added

Imports Microsoft.Office.Interop

Now I appear to be in business.
