    Hi,

    It doesn't work because Office 2000 uses a higher version of object libraries. You're using "Microsoft Word 9.0 Object Library" and Office '97 uses version 8.0

    A possible solution: make a complete packet with all dll and ocx files! Use Package & Deployment Wizard from your Visual Basic Tools
