I can't add Microsoft Office Reference in Visual Studio 2008 Mobile Application

Sep 22 2011 11:14 PM

I have a problem.  I have developed several desktop applications that involve Excel automation, and I am pretty aware of how to add Office Library References, create Excel objects, etc.  Now, I am developing a SmartDevice application that will run in a CellPhone with Windows Mobile 6.1, and I want to read from an Excel file that will reside in the phone.  The problem is, when I try to add a reference to the Microsoft Office Library, it doesn't exist in the COM Reference List.  How can I make this Library available?

I am using Visual Basic in Visual Studio 2008.

Can someone help me?

Thanks in advance for any ideas.
