"Microsoft Excel Application" missing in "Component Services" Win0

[praveen kumar]

We have installed office 2003 on windows 2008 server:

The .NET application is unable to create excel reports. Excel fails to
create excel object.

I have tried the solution provided by the following URL

but the problem is that I cant find "Microsoft Excel Application" in the
"Component Services" MMC window, to grant access to Excel, so that .NET
application will be able to create excel reports again.

This problem has become very urgent now, PLEASE help .

Thanks heaps in advance,
Regards,

I had the same problem of not being able to see the "Microsoft Excel
Application" in the Component Services. I installed Microsoft Office 2000 and
it started appearing. Try rebooting the server.
