How to check if .NET programmability support is installed for Word 2007

Question

I have to install third party software that requires that Microsoft Office 2007 be installed with ".NET Programability Support".

Does anyone know how I can tell if this was installed?

Answer 1

Click Start, click Run, type appwiz.cpl, and then click OK.

In the list of installed programs and updates, click any Microsoft Office 2007 product, and then click Change.

In the list of update options for applications and tools, double-click any Microsoft Office 2007 product.

See if .NET Programmability Support appears to be installed already.

Once the add or remove program dialog box is open:

1. Select Microsoft Office.
2. Click on "change", you should see a few labelled icons, one will be the "net programmability support"
3. Click on the "+" sign to open it up.
4. If there is a red "X" then it is needs to be removed.

Answer 3

Unless you explicitly unchecked it, Office 2003 and above installed that by default. Office XP didn’t do it.

But you can also look for the interop libraries. Look for Excel.Interop.DLL (can’t remember the exact location but they are inside Program Files somewhere.
