VB .Net & Excel Reporting -

I have created some Excel templates and an EXE that opens them, get data from a DB, writes it and saves it. It works great on my machine because Excel is installed on it.

I need to move the code to a production server where excel is not running, what are my options? I am making use of the Excel Object Library currently but that can change if need be. I cannot install excel on the server and it would be ideal for no need to install anything on the server.

If anyone has any ideas, please let me know.

Regards,

Michael Wheeler
