I have an app that makes calls to Powerpoint for processing files. The app works fine on a machine that has Powerpoint 2003 SP2 installed. When I copy the app (a single executable) over to another machine... Win XP Pro, Powerpoint 2000, SP-3, it blows up.... Specifically, on... var lPresentation: PowerPointPresentation; lApplication: PowerPointApplication; begin .... lPresentation := lApplication.Presentations.Open(FileName, msoFalse, msoFalse, msoFalse); I KNOW that FileName points to a valid PPT file. My USES clause is... uses Windows, Messages, SysUtils, Classes, Graphics, Controls, Forms, Dialogs, AdvPageControl, ComCtrls, StdCtrls, HTMLText, jpeg, ExtCtrls, Buttons, PlusGutter, PlusMemo, JvDialogs, JvAppInst, ParamListbox, clipbrd, OleServer, {msppt2000,} {Office2000,} Office_TLB, Powerpoint_TLB, FileCtrl, FlCtrlEx, Mask, JvExMask, JvToolEdit, JclFileUtils, Math, htmlbtns, Psapi, tlhelp32, EasyFileSearch, FileSearch, AdvAlertWindow, JvComponent, JvBaseDlg, JvDesktopAlert, pmprint, PlusToFormat, AdvSelectors, asgcombo, ColorCombo, JvWizard, JvExControls, JvComponentBase, JvWizardRouteMapNodes, JvWizardRouteMapSteps {HyperStr}; The only Type Library that I have imported is Microsoft Powerpoint 11.0 Object Library. The {msppt2000,} {Office2000,} references are because I had this code running under a different (no longer accessible) computer which had Delphi 5 Pro and PPT 2000. Any help or ideas greatly appreciated.

There is nothing wrong with developing on a machine with PP2003 installed using the PP2000 unit.
