Supporting Office 2003 from .NET: getting the Office 2003 Primary Interop Assemblies

Posted by jpluimers on 2011/02/22

Often you work with projects not having the latest stuff.
Sometimes that is a good thing: latest stuff is not always best :-)

In this case, the client had Office 2003, and needed to do some Excel automation from .NET.
The development systems however had Office 2007 on it, so importing Excel defaults to the Office 2007 Primary Interop Assembly: Office version 12 in stead of 11. Read the rest of this entry »

If Your Visual Studio 2005 Solutions Open Slowly, Check WebsiteCache | Thomas F. Abraham – On Technology

Posted by jpluimers on 2011/02/15

If you use Visual Studio 2005 for some old projects that have not yet been converted, and they open very slowly: read this post on If Your Visual Studio Solutions Open Slowly Check WebsiteCache by Thomas F. Abraham.

Emptying your WebsiteCache directory solves the issue: it had about 30-thousand empty directories in it.

The location depends on your Windows version:

  • Windows XP, Windows Server 2003 and below:
    “%USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\WebsiteCache”
  • Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008 and up:
    “%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\WebsiteCache”

This bug has been fixed in Visual Studio 2008 and up.
