Office Web Component 9.0 vs 11

[Pankaj]

Hi,

We have some asp pages using spreassheet and chart components. These pages are working fine where users have Office 2000 (OWC 9.0). Now, some of users have installed Office 2003 and spreadsheet components and chart components stopped working. Shows some eror on page (method not found). I installed OWC 11 on users (using Office 2003) machine but styill doesn't work

Now we have two sort of users, one using Office 2000 and others using 2003. Can you please suggest me, how to fix the problem so both types of users can use existing web pages

Thanks

good question. i'm having the same problem with some old reports i wrote 2
years ago for Office 2000. Now that i'm on a new machine with WinXP and
Office 2003 they don't work anymore and i get this message.

Error: Object doesn't support this property or method: 'oChart.Constants'

I'm using it through an ASP page and this is the line it's complaining about
that works fine on older machines.

Set c = oChart.Constants

so i guess they aren't backwards compatible? that's horrible.

i tried setting the codeBase on the chart object in my asp page to the
msowc.cab file in the office 2000 installation directory but it complains
that it can't install with the following message.

"The Microsoft Office Web Installer requires administrator privileges in
order to install necessary components. Installation failed."

and i am a local administrator on this system.

You'd have to find the office 2000 cd, it's on there.

Office 2003 does not ship the OWC9 control. The client machine needs to install the OWC9 control from the Office2k or OfficeXP setup CD.
