    Cannot see Excel library in available project references

    Hi

    I am trying to resurrect an old VB6 project on a new server but I am hitting a problem with some of its Excel related functionality and, in particular, the "Save As" (HTML) functionality which is generating an error in the HTML "This page uses frames, but your browser doesn't support them".

    As this project is still active and working on an old server, as a first step, I thought I'd install Excel 2003 (as used on that server) on the newer machine I'm testing on. However, my next step is to go into the project and change the reference from "Microsoft Excel 14.0 Object Library" to "Microsoft Excel 11.0 Object Library" but the latter is not showing in the available references. I assumed it would appear followingf the Excel 2003 install. I aslo tried running the Excel EXE with /regserver switch but that had no effect.

    I am aware that Excel v14 (Excel 2010) is also pretty old but I know the same logic is failing on another machine with a relatively current version of Excel.

    Any help as to how I can resolvge this problem would be greatly appreciated.

    Many thanks.
