Question : Powershell function to create an excel spreadsheet multiple sheets - and ApproveIt on workstation

The attached code is a function I am calling. I can call the function but something won't let me create the file. It may be approveit related.

Error: You cannot call a method on a null-valued expression.
Exception calling "Add" with "0" argument(s): "The server threw an exception. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80010105 (RPC_E_SERVERFAULT))"
At :line:12 char:28
+ $Book = $Excel.Workbooks.Add <<<< ()

Anybody got any tips? If I can't create the file, can anybody provide some assistance how to call a prefabbed excel file with multiple worksheets?

Answer : Powershell function to create an excel spreadsheet multiple sheets - and ApproveIt on workstation

Nope. It fails at the file create. This is not the whole script.

It is approveit. Rather than fiddling with the settings, I just removed ApproveIt.
