Hello everyone ,

This post is regarding a problem that I faced whenever I installs an application created in C#.Net .A message is popped up whenever I execute the application :

Retrieving the COM class factory for component with CLSID
{00024500-0000-0000-C000-0000000000046} failed due to the following error :
80040154

I followed a post that says that the problem area is windows 7 so you need to build of project in x86 instead of Any CPU but still it didn't work .

I would appreciate your input over this .

Thanks

Thank you guys for spending your time but the issue is resolved as the problem was that MS office was not installed on the machine as the application was looking for the registry entry
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{00024500-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}
which makes an entry upon installation of MS office .
So upon installation of MS office the issue got resolved .
