Microsoft.office.interop.word dll (2007/2010)issues/ c#.net How do I install 'MS Office 12.0 Object Library' without installing MS Office Read Excel file without office installed on server. On the.NET tab, select the primary interop assembly you want in the Component Name list. For more information about the available Microsoft Office primary interop assemblies, see Office primary interop assemblies. The assembly name appears in the References folder of Solution Explorer.

I'm not sure - A moderator could probably answer you better; as they may have information they can directly access but here's my guess.

Office 2013 Interop Download

The dll is licensed with the product - you're allowed to use the dll with the product, or for 'extensibility' with the product (in this case office). I would seriously doubt you are allowed to redistribute that dll to your web application - on a host that doesnt have that product installed. If word reports are a big part of your application, then you are basically saying that the 'System Requirments' include needing word installed, so you have the dll in the GAC.

Microsoft.office.interop.word.application C#

Of course this is just a guess, but my feeling is - you may need another solution, you obviously dont want anywhere you host it, to have to install word just to run you're web application...maybe you do.

Microsoft Office Interop Word

As you mentioned...you're other option is to install the Microsoft Primary Interop Assemblies - which are available for download for this reason.
