Hi all,
I am trying to figure out if the disclaimer below still applies to the .NET Framework 4.0:
Microsoft does not currently recommend, and does not support, Automation of Microsoft Office applications from any unattended, non-interactive client application or component (including ASP, ASP.NET, DCOM, and NT Services), because Office may exhibit unstable behavior and/or deadlock when Office is run in this environment.
I was under the impression that the new version of the Framework uses some magic to avoid PIA deployment and somehow one is allowed to manipulate Interop objects ... I do not know enough to figure this on my own. The simple question is: is it possible to open an Excel workbook from within an ASP.NET page, change something in it, save it and do not blow anything in the process?
Thanks,
kowalsky
