Default Using Excel Solver in VBA

Hello,

I'm trying to use this simple code in Excel VBA:
SolverReset
SolverOk SetCell:="$A$13", MaxMinVal:=2, ValueOf:="0", ByChange:="$A$7"
SolverSolve

Unfortunately it seems that these functions aren't known. So i browsed
the web a little and found out that i needed to activate the Solver in
"Tools-References...". I couldn't find it in the list so i clicked
"Browse" and selected SOLVER32.dll in F:\Program Files\Microsoft
Office\OFFICE11\Library\SOLVER . Unfortunately that doesn't work (i get
a "Can't add a reference to the specified file" error message.

This is using Excel 2003 3 month trial. The solver works fine in Excel,
it's just the VBA part that i can't get to work.

Many thanks for your help,
