    Referencing older versions of Interop

    Hello all.

    I need to make a C# program backwards compatible with office 2003 (my dev computer uses 2007).

    Previously, I have done this by copying the entire project to another machine with 2003 installed, deleting the references to Office.Interop 12.0 Object Libraries, and replacing them with 11.0 Object Libraries, and recompiling on that machine.

    Problems have begun to crop up with this method, and I would rather compile on my development machine. Does anyone know where can I get the 11.0 Interop .dll files, or any way to copy them from the 2003 computer (it won't let me copy from c:\windows\assembly)?

    Please help before my skull does serious damage to the desk I'm sitting at. Thanks!
