[Closed] MaxScript and Excel

I don’t really think my issue is a maxscripting problem, but I hope someone can help me…
I have made a script for 3d studio max

My code is
xl = createOLEobject “Excel.Application”

And I get this error:

MAXScript Rollout Handler Exception
– Runtime error: createOLEObject: can’t find server Excel.Application

I have Excel 2010 running on my PC – but it’s only a trial.

I don’t think it’s the code since It’s running fine on another PC (and has for some years now) but now I need to make some changes, so I need it to run on my own PC.

Does anyone know what I can do, to get this server issue sorted out…?

You’ve probably worked it out now but it does sound like Excel being a trial version is the issue.
