Excel's "About..." states:
Microsoft Office Excel 2003 (11.6560.6568) SP2

When in Excel 2003 and the clicking the "System Info..." button on that dialogue I get a new window showing lotsa good stuff.

When I expand Office 2003 Applications, then expand Microsoft Office Excel 2003 under it, then click on the "COM Add-Ins" item subordinate I get the following in the Listview window right:
"Microsoft Office Excel 2003 is not available. Verify that Excel 2003 is installed and running and then choose Refresh from the View or Action menu.".
When I do as instructed (it is installed and running, so I click "Refresh") nothing changes.

The reason I ask is that I have another application that doesn't seem to want to recognize Excel. I can tell you that I have successfully invoked Excel 2003 using VFP code, so it looks to be there to me.

Any ideas/help most appreciated.

cheers
