Two versions of PowerPoint, but references to 11.0 Unavailable

Hi!

I am automating PowerPoint from Excel and need to get the 2003 (11.0) reference for my project. I have ppt 2003 and 2007 installed on my machine, and am working in Excel 2003.

Unfortunately MS Powerpoint 12.0 is the only available ppt Library in the references list. :banghead:

Has anyone experienced something similar, and what the heck can I do about it?

Browse to the MSPPT.OLB file for the version you want.

Ok I found it in the Office11 Directory. Now what?

Should have been clearer - browse to it from the References dialog and then select it and it should become the checked reference.
