[Mono-dev] Reading and writing excel files

["ZABALA CALVO, IÑAKI"]

I am trying to read and write Excel .xls files
I have tried it with COM:

using System;
using Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel;

public class ExcelDemo { 
  public static void Main () 
  {
    Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Application app = new
Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Application();
    Console.WriteLine("Version is {0}.", app.Version);
  }
}

I have compiled it: 
mcs exceldemo.cs -r:System.Office.Interop.Excel.dll

But I have got a message box with "** ERROR **: Method
'Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.ApplicationClass:.ctor()' in assembly
'...\Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.dll contains native code and mono can't
run it. The assembly was probably created by Managed C++". 

Thank you
