Default Choosing the Version of Excel when opening an instance

Weird, I don't have a machine with both of them installed, but on the
machine with 2007, that line creates a run time error, only when I change it
to Excel.Application.12 it works.

So, try what Jim Rech said and see if that helps.

That still opens up the 07 version...

Try using

Set xlApp = CreateObject("Excel.Application.11")

I'm using vba with ms project and excel, pulling the tasks from project
to excel. I have excel 2007 and 2003 installed on my computer. By
default when I use
Set xlApp = New Excel.Application
xlApp.Visible = True
AppActivate "Microsoft Excel"

The 2007 version is used. I would like to use the 2003 version. Any
help is appreciated.

Cheers
