OK..I got a stumper here...well I thought it was a total stumper, but then
I got most of it fixed AFTER I sent a long winded plea to Vic's group LOL
But...I'm still a tad stumped...maybe someone using Office 2003 can help me?
I have a couple interactive spreadsheets on my website....here's one:
http://personal-computer-tutor.com/vlookup.htm
These are controlled by ActiveX and this spreadsheet shows just fine in my
old Win XP machine, running Excel 2002...but it just showed as a box with a
red X on my Win 2k machine, using Excel 2k and my Win XP machine using Excel
2003
I managed to fix it on the Excel 2k machine and thought I had the problem
solved...I just exported the clsid key from the XP machine and imported it
into the 2k machine (since it was missing) and edited the path where it
points to msowc.dll and now the spreadsheet shows in IE on that machine,
just fine.
However...this machine, using Excel 2003, doesn't even have msowc.dll, so I
don't know where to point this key, even if I import it.
Details...
The clsid is HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{0002E510-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}
In the two machines where it is working, there is a subfolder of this key
called InproServer32 and in there is the path that points to the msowc.dll
file.
I looked at some of the other clsids that point to Excel spreadsheet stuff
and see that they point to OWC10.DLL.1033 so I tried importing this
clsid key from my other computer and pointing it at that DLL, but I still
can't see this spreadsheet.
Is this something that's changed drastically in 2003, with all the xml
changes? Is there a way I can make this spreadsheet show in my webpage in
2003, so that it will also still show in the earlier versions of Office?
Anybody got a clue here, cuz I've tried changing just about everything I can
possibly change in that clsid key and I still can't get this thing to
show...and I know it's not my ActiveX settings cuz I set them to "default"
on all three machines, so they should be the same.
Help?
