Excel add-in does not launch - runtime error

[Carmaged]

Dear SAS-ers,

I have just upgraded my 32-bit 9.2 install to the recent 9.3 TS1M0 64-bit install and decided to try the Office add-in (having 2010 64-bit). However, when I start any associated Office application (Excel, Word), the SAS add-in remains inactive for the following reason: "Load Behavior: Not loaded. A runtime error occurred during the loading of COM Add-in.". So far I have not managed to get more log and Google did also not really help me.

Has anybody already encountered this problem?

Thank you,

Attila

Thank you! But unfortunately it does not help. I copied all Interop dlls to the c:\windows\assembly folder, but the error message is still the same.

If Office 2010 is 64-bit edtion,,,64-bit Office 2010 is not supported yet.

Thank you! I should have seen it...

In the meantime 9.3 brought us the AMO for 64 bit Office, as well. However, it makes Office applications start extremely slowly.
