Did you check the DCOM permissions of the Windows user account running the Excel Report Server TM1ExcelService.exe ?


See the IBM Technote 1458332:

Unable to launch TM1 websheet: Old format or invalid type library

cheers moby91, you are a life saver... thought it was permissions and couldnt find the specific error on the IBM site, but your tech note is the answer.
