I deployed a VS.Net 2003 web application on Windows Server 2003 where Microsoft Office is not installed. Everything works except Excel report functionality. It's fine in my development PC where I have MS office. The exception is:
COM object with CLSID {00024500-0000-0000-C000-000000000046} is either not valid or not registered.
Is there a way to get around this error without MS Office installation on the server? Any Office run-time components to fix this issue?

No, the COM Interop interacts directly with components of Excel. The only run-time components I know of are the Interop ones that let you use an installed copy of Excel.
