How to avoid dependency on Office dll version (MSO.dll)

Hello,

My question may be a little stupid, but how should I declare those variables
so that the addin doesn't depend on the version of the Office object model
dll? Right now using the addin sample I have:

Dim cbrNewToolbar As Office.CommandBar
Private WithEvents CBButton As Office.CommandBarButton

This way though I need to have two version of the add-in dll -- one for
Office 2002 and one for Office 2000.

Any advice is greatly appreciated!

Thank you,
Orlin

Thank you Ken,

I maybe got confused. Maybe it was a different problem I was experiencing.
I will try again.
