Hi I think this is not a new topic but I haven't saw this error with outlook.
The point is when I open my registered excel add in application and I try to open the outlook office the message box appears and says this:
"Unable to cast COM object of type:
'Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.ApplicationClass' to interface type
'Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel._Application'. This operation failed because the
QueryInterface call on the COM component for the interface with IID
'{000208D5-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}'failed due to the following
error: No such interface supported (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80004002
(E_NOINTERFACE)).

Hello Luis,

Am I right assuming that this only occurs if you register your Excel add-in? If so, check whether your Excel add-in is also registered with Outlook: check the add-ins Outlook loads at File | Options | Add-ins under "Active application add-ins".

Hello Luis,

It looks like you need to debug your code. I assume it expects to be run in Excel when the add-in loads in Outlook.

And if you start Outlook and Excel is not started?
