yes and Word 97

>>I have an excel spreadsheet with a command button on it. The logic behind the button creates a Word session and opens an existing document. When my client runs the spreadsheet he gets error #429:ActiveX Component cannot create object. The Code is below.
>>
>>Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
>> Dim oWordApp As Object
>> Set oWordApp = CreateObject("Word.Application")
>> Set oDoc = oWordApp.Documents.Open("cguides.doc")
>> oWordApp.Visible = True
>>End Sub
>>

>>Has anyone had the same problem or know what is wrong?

>>Thanks

>OK, it's an obvious question ... is Word installed? If so, what version?
