Owc11 and windows 7

Answered by:. Archived Forums. Web Forms. Sign in to vote. User posted Hi All, Please help me regarding this Microsoft. Thanks in Advance. Thursday, March 20, AM. Tuesday, February 16, AM. Net application so it may not be as relevant to this thread I also have an application that uses the OWC 11 Spreadsheet Component and it at least works installed on my Windows 7 Home laptop.

I tried including what I guessed to be the necessary DLLs without any luck. I have it setup so that the installer checks for the OWCSpreadsheet registry key and if that is not there then it tries to install Office Web Components. Not sure if there is a better solution out there for handling this? I have seen that on at least 1 Windows 7 computer that registry key check apparently didn't work and the Spreadsheet did not throw an exception, but it just did not show up on the expected forms.

I also had a check for if a form with that spreadsheet throws an exception then it offers to install Office Web Components which in this case, obviously does not work. The problem was fixed by installing Office Web Components, but I was unsure how to better programmatically determine whether Office Web Components was already installed or if it needed to be installed?
