To open and read data from Excel files, do I need to purchase VS2008
Standard or Professional? I was looking at the product comparison and
it says Standard does not include

Microsoft Office System 2003 Primary Interop Assemblies
Microsoft Office System Runtime

Thanks
 
I believe you don't need neither for excel. even the express version will do
with com interface..
 
if you want to open excel 2007 files all you need is the Oen Xml Sdk

You can read data from Excel using OleDbCommands. These are available
in any version of Visual Studio.
