Excel connector is not working in french OS

Post by AutomationTester » Mon Apr 01, 2013 7:10 am

Hi,

I got an excel connector from the forum for using the data in the excel sheet. It works perfectly in the Win7 English OS. But, (as per my client need) I have to run it on a Win7 french OS.It's not working.

It shows the error
Error reading a ranks of cells from Excel: Error: Old format or invalid type library. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80028018 (TYPE_E_INVDATAREAD)) Line: Interop.Microsoft.Office.Interop.ExcelSystem.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x80028018): Old format or invalid type library. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80028018 (TYPE_E_INVDATAREAD))

Hi,

You could for instance install the "Multilingual User Interface Pack for your version of Office" as described on the following link.
