word 9.0 against word 10.0 library

[Guest]

Hello,
I have builded an application that use word to create a report.
I have Office 2000 and Office XP installed on my pc.
The application is builded in Access2000.
The application references to Word 10.0 library while i would have word 9.0 referenced but i can't see it in the libraries list.
There's a way to solve this problem?
Thanks!
Rocco

If your application is being used in an environment where you can't
guarantee what version of a product your users are going to have, you're
better off using Late Binding, rather than setting a reference to a
particular library.

See whether the information Tony Toews has at
http://www.granite.ab.ca/access/latebinding.htm is enough to get you going.

Why?

There is very little that Word can do better than an Access report, and
sticking within one application saves years of development time.

Why? There might be a lot of good reasons. Try to cut/paste a part of the
Access report, for example.
Of course, you can output it in rich text format, but it will not look the
same in most cases.
Word docs are fully editable.
