Point me please to where this has been discussed already, or it not, tell me how I can go about finding out from Microsoft if this is in their roadmap for. NET Core on Mac OSX with a local copy of Excel for Mac installed. NET Core is the answer but I can’t find anywhere where it says definitely that we can (or will be able to) access the Excel Object Library from C# when running. We just have to assume the user has a licenced local copy of Excel running, and work with that… which is what we have always done on Windows, where it works great). (Running the app in Parallels, Mono or Wine is not a solution because the spec for the app requires that the user machine is not modified in any way. That the project will not go ahead unless the app can run on Mac as well as Windows – that is, we have to be able to produce a Mac version of the app that can install natively on OSX and interact with the object model of a user’s instance of Microsoft Excel I am currently charged with specifying a new product but I’ve been told


I work for a team that currently specializes in creating windows desktop (WPF) applications in C#/.NET that interwork with local user instances of Microsoft Excel via Office Interop.
