Re: Is Excel 2016 compatible with TestComplete 12?
Simply installing the 64 bit 2010 redistributable as described in the documentation enabled me to access the Excel file included in the tutorial. I removed nothing - just installed the redistributable and the DDT tutorials are working fine. Thanks for the help!1.5KViews2likes0CommentsRe: Is Excel 2016 compatible with TestComplete 12?
Thanks again for your reply, Alex - and thank you for your patience. I am evaluating automated test tools for a company I am joining and just getting back to Microsoft computing. If I understand correctly, the only way to use 64 bit Excel 2016 is to remove it and install 64 bit drivers from Office 2010. Is that correct? It's just hard to wrap my head around installing 8 year old drivers to use this tool... I just bought this laptop and the new version of Excel in Office. I realize you are not Microsoft support but if I remove Office 2016 as recommended in the instructions for installing Office 2010, do I then have to pay for Office 2010? Thank you again for your time, expertise and patience.3.9KViews0likes1CommentRe: Is Excel 2016 compatible with TestComplete 12?
Thank you for your reply. I ran the 32 bit version of TestComplete straight from the bin and made sure it said x86 on the splash screen when it loaded but I got the same error message when trying to connect to the Excel spreadsheet specified in the tutorial. I'm still looking for a way to perform a data driven test with Excel 2016 and TestComplete12.4KViews0likes3CommentsRe: Is Excel 2016 compatible with TestComplete 12?
Thanks for your reply. I am just doing the tutorial for data driven tests and have not yet got to the code window yet. From what I gather, without writing code - which I'm not opposed to doing, just haven't gotten there yet as I'm just beginning to use the tool - there isn't a way to use 64 bit Excel with TestComplete. Seems odd. Thanks again for your reply but I'm still looking for a solution.4KViews0likes0CommentsIs Excel 2016 compatible with TestComplete 12?
I am trying to do a data loop in the tutorial and when specifying the spreadsheet, I am prompted to install the 64 bit version of Office 12.0 Access Database Engine OLE DB provider from Access 2010 redistributable. I am working on a brand new laptop with 64 bit Windows 10 and freshly installed Office 365 which contains Excel 2016. The instructions on the Microsoft website tell me to remove all versions of Access. As mentioned, I just installed Office 365 and it works fine except for when I try to use it with TestComplete. Is there a workaround that will permit me to do a data-driven test with Excel 2016? I've attached a snip of the error.

Relative newby here - I'm attempting to do a data loop from the tutorial and when I specify the included spreadsheet, I'm prompted to install the 64 bit version of Office 12.0 Access Database Engine OLE DB provider from Access 2010. I'm working on a brand new computer with a 64 bit version of Windows 10 with a brand new version of Office 365. When I go to the Microsoft site, the download instructions tell me to remove all versions of Access. I'm not uninstalling the Office 365 I just paid for and installed. Is there a workaround that will enable me to use Excel 2016 with TestComplete 12? TIA4.1KViews0likes7Comments
