Showing Excel sheet preview in .Net App

[Dnereb]

Hi All,

I was wondering if anyone already done this. And off course How?
I'm working on a project to get several departments incoorperating the same budgetting systematic. Yeah hell is pretty near so far.

What I need is a way to create a preview in excell for the template they are defining in an application. As the end user will enter the data in an Excel sheet... YES this IS mandatory in this phase.

So I want the department manager to drag items into a treeview defining a template and generate a excel workbook and show a sheet with the result of his definitions.

Question? how can I show an Excel sheet within a vb.net application?

Thx in advance....

Thx!

I've red the articles and a lot off the linked pages as well.

Final conclusion:
To ensure forward compatibility with Excel 2007 and onwards use a third party control.

But it made me wiser non the less.
