I would think that it would much easier/safer to use late binding--and never
worry about what version of MSWord is being used:
You might want to look at the way Dick Kusleika does it:

You may want to look at these links that Tom Ogilvy posted recently:
Here are some more extensive references on binding:
Use late binding - don't have a reference to excel.

I have an Excel app which will be used by users with office XP and 2003

I've heard there is a dynamic way to set object library references for
different versions of office. i.e. to test what version is running and
then reference the Word 10 or Word 11 libraries as appropriate.
How?
