I am exporting to Excel from a C# Winform Application. With my customer base
my application must support Office 2002 to Office 2007. If I use the 11.0
object model I am only compatible back to 2003 (I think)

For my Word interoperability I went with the DSOFramer and the
Interop.Word.dll which provided a version independent layer that solved the
problem in Word.

Now although the DSOFramer seems to support Excel I can not find an
equivalent Interop.Excel.dll.

Any suggestions for the proper approach?

Hi,

If you want your application to work on machines with multiple
versions
of Excel, maybe you should consider using some 3rd party component?
For example, our GemBox.Spreadsheet Free Excel component
(http://www.gemboxsoftware.com/GBSpreadsheetFree.htm) can be
used free of charge for XLS/CSV/XLSX reading/writing/reporting, if
you
have small workbooks.
