Can't use Office 10 instead of Office 11

Hi all;

I have a C# Word add-in I have written that works great with Office
11.

I added the Office 10 interops as described in
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnoxpta/html/odc_oxppias.asp.
And in the GAC I have the Word 10 dll. But it won't show it in the
references, add, COM list. And I can't browse to it because it's in
the GAC.

Any ideas?

thanks - dave

Hi David,

Have you got Office XP installed on the machine as this is required to be
able to select the COM Object "Microsoft Word 10 Object Library" if this is
not in the references dialog under the COM Tab in VS.NET this would indicate
a problem in the com registration and a fresh or reinstall of office xp
would be advised. If this isn't installed you maybe able to select the
COMInterop PIA File and trick this to work as it will upgrade and run on an
Office 2003 machine quite happily.
