Is there any library that can write excel files in Microsoft Office XML format ? I can't use MS Interop Excel.
I've used EPPlus in a few of my projects with no issues at. I've used it in Web and Desktop based applications. The API is pretty easy to pick up and run with it. With it I've been able to generate new documents, read and edit existing,manipulate the fortmatting. It even supports using a LINQ syntax which is pretty fun.. at least I think so :)
It's LGPL licensed so you can use it in commercial and non-commercial projects.
You can use OPENXML , ECMA Office Open XML ("Open XML") is an international, open standard for word-processing documents, presentations, and spreadsheets that can be freely implemented by multiple applications on multiple platforms,Reference.

I've been googling methods for interacting with PowerPoint via C# and have had a play with Interop and VSOT (I think - is this a wrapper around Interop).
Does anyone have any tips or pointers on best practice ? I seem to find several different methods for dealing PowerPoint files. I essentially need to replace text, apply styles and update charts and tables. I'm not creating them - everything will be done from template files.
The best option, especially if you are working with newer extensions (pptx, xlsx, etc) is OOXML.
Have a look here and samples on working with powerpoint here
replace text, apply styles and update charts and tables.
I think VBA is the simplest way to do that. But if your needs, in future go past these, into more advanced territory, you'll have no choice but to switch to a different approach. VBA is limited in many ways.

I want to have a free OCR SDK which can extract text, tables with data and images from scanned document files (.tiff,.png etc) and store into Office Word document file.
Please help me to short out this issue. I have already done extracting text only from images using MODI but could not get the way using MODI how to extract tables and images and store into Office Word Document file.
I’m not sure whether opensource SDKs can solve your tasks. Based on what you describe I see that you need a complex ocr application with document logical structure reconstruction functions. If you are planning business software you may look at ABBYY FineReader Engine. It has a set of document analyzing and reconstruction features, provides api for c# and it’s free to try. It’s not affordable for free-to-use programs, but when it comes to business software – ABBYY OCR technologies can add a serious value to your product, so consider trying it out. I work # ABBYY and can provide you additional info if necessary.
Best regards, Nikolay.

I am looking for a MS-Office document to .PDF 3rd party software that does not create the need for my code to manipulate the COM directly. I am looking for a package that is native to .net. I have already looked at the following:
http://www.cete.com/
http://www.pdfonline.com
Are there any other SDK packages that you are aware of that can meet my needs?
If the software package manipulates the COM on it's own, that is fine. I just don't want to perform any operations against the COM within my code. I would also prefer it to be C# based.
I think you might find one here: http://www.codeproject.com/KB/cs/sertf2pdf.aspx ; and perhaps here as well: www.novapdf.com/kb/convert-word-to-pdf-microsoft-office-word-documents-to-pdf-208.html.
Have a look at ASPOSE.NET Total & TXTextControl .NET.
Have a look at the PDF Conversion Services. It provides everything in a modern and convenient Web Services based SDK. All self contained, no need for IIS.
C# sample code can be found here.
Did you check on the win32ole for converting the microsoft document into PDF
Check the saveas command on the document object of the Win32ole.
You can save an MS office doc(doc/xls/PPT) as PDf

I am using C# 2.0 and developing an application to convert a PDF file into HTML, Word, Excel and Image (GIF,JPEG,PNG,TIFF). Is there any free library / class available for that?
The iTextSharp library allows you to manipulate PDF files. You should be able to build what you need from it.
I know you want a free library, but a good library I've used is Windward .NET reporting engine. It is very expensive, though.
Solid Framework does a good job with PDF files. Not free though. I have tried iTextSharp and PDFBox and I can say PDFBox is rather easy if you just need the text content.

I'm looking to make calls out to a subversion repository, but I would like to write it in C#. Does anyone know of any good libraries?
Have a look at SharpSVN. This is an open-source binding of the Subversion Client API for .Net 2.0 applications.
For example, this library is used by the AnkhSVN Visual Studio Add-In.
I recommend you look at the Tortoise SVN source code.
It is mostly in C++, but since it is all done in VS, it should be easy to wrap up and use much of the code again.
You can also try SubversionSharp if you want less heavy lifting (however it is not yet a stable release, so be cautious).
How about SubversionSharp.
