Hi,

I created a DTS Package to transfer data to MS Excel. In my DTS package, first I create an empty MS Excel and then follow by data transformation. I successfully run the DTS package on a machine with MS Excel installed. When I run the DTS package on other machine withour MS Excel install, I got the following error message:

"ActiveX component can't create object "Excel.Application".

Is it true that I must install MS Excel on the machine in order for me to create an MS Excel file? Or is there any other solution without install the MS Excel

Thank you.

As far as I know - uuuhhmm - Yes, you must have have the component before you can start trying to use it.
