ThinApp'ed Java application cannot open Excel 2016

Hello Folks,

 

We have ThinApp'ed into a MSI these applications:

 

- Mozilla Seamonkey, (32bit, FR, version 2.46)

- Java 8 (32bit, update 121)

 

We use it to access an in-house financial application at uses the Java Plugin.

 

Inside this application, Excel is used to generate reports.   Excel is installed locally on the workstation and is therefore not ThinApp'ed.

 

If we use Office 2013, everything works fine.   The secretary clicks the 'export to Excel' button in the Java application and Excel shows us the generated XLS file within Excel.

 

However, Office 2016 has a different behavior.  The Java application gives us an error saying that it could not open Excel 2016.   The only way to bypass this problem is to have an instance of Excel 2016 already opened.

 

Anyone have an idea on how to fix this?

 

Thank You!
