This program works for me in VB.NET, I agree with rajah9, check the other aspects.

Imports Excel = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel

Public Class Form1
    Dim oExcel As Object
    Dim oBook As Object
    Dim oSheet As Object
    Private Sub Button1_Click(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
        oExcel = CreateObject("Excel.Application")
        oBook = oExcel.Workbooks.Add()
        oSheet = oBook.Worksheets(1)
        oSheet.Range("A3").Select()
        oExcel.ActiveCell.Value = "Put text here"

        oBook.SaveAs("C:\Path\testinterop.xlsx")
        oExcel.Quit()

    End Sub
End Class
