VB 2005 Express - Excel 2007 - how to?

[=?Utf-8?B?RHVrZSBDYXJleQ==?=]

I *did* have Excel 2003 on my office PC and was fiddling with a little VB
Express app that interacted with Excel - nothing complex, but it worked.

Since then IT has upgraded me to Office 2007 and the only thing I can import
is Microsoft.Office.Core, nothing with the Excel object at all. My earlier
code throws off errors whenever Excel is referenced.

Is this Microsoft's way of telling me that I can't access Excel 2007 from VB
Express, or do I need to download something to make this work?

Did you add a reference to the Microsoft Excel Object Library 12.0 com
object? You must add the reference to the dll before you can start
importing namespaces.

Well, that was simple. Thanks for the assistance.
