I'm looking for any available free Excel "helper" classes that are written for .net (doesn't have to be C#). I'd like to evaluate what others consider to be useful and generic static (and non static) helper methods. Can be targeted at VSTO or regular Office automation, although that probably doesn't matter. I guess I should also point o...

VSTO 4.0 / Office 2007 In an Excel document-level automation project, I have a worksheet that must not be deleted from the workbook. I am afraid that a careless user might delete it by accident, which currently causes a lot of grief (exceptions galore). I can not protect the entire workbook, because the user must be able to create, del...

I am developing a fairly comprehensive Excel add-in, applying a lot of ops. Take a workbook, save under new name, apply actions (add names, change formulae, etc).
