Unable to Authorize Launch Permissions for missing "Microsoft ExcelApplication" in DCOM Config

M

Hi,

I would like to develop Excel charts programatically using VB .NET and
the Microsoft Excel 11.0 Object Library (http://www.beansoftware.com/
asp.net-tutorials/generating-excel-reports.aspx). To accomplish this,
I need to authorize the aspnet user on my machine launch permissions
on "Microsoft Excel Application" DCOM (http://blog.crowe.co.nz/archive/
2006/03/02/589.aspx). I tried using dcomcnfg.exe to do this, however,
I cannot find the "Microsoft Excel Application" DCOM under DCOM
Config.

I am developing on a Windows XP (work machine) using Office Excel 2003

Why is the ""Microsoft Excel Application" missing in DCOM Config? More
importantly, how can I give aspnet launch privileges to if Microsoft
Excel Application DCOM is missing in DCOM Config?

Thanks,

Marc
