It looks like I am repeating the question but this time I am posting with hope I can get an answer from Managed group

Sorry for the inconvience peopl
----------------
I am following Visio COM Add-in Generation Tutorial. But can't get a reference to Microsoft.Office.Interop.Visio. But instead VS creates Interop.Visio

My machine is WinXP Pro, Visio 2003 and Visio 2003 SDK . And .NET 1.1 was installed way before
I can find the Microsoft.Office.Interop.Visio in the GAC when manually look with WinExplorer, but it does not appear in VS Add Reference window

At the step

"To use the Visio PIA
1. In the Solution Explorer pane, right-click the TutorialAddin project and choose Add Reference.
2. Click the COM tab. Locate the Microsoft Visio 11.0 Type Library in the component list, and then click Select. Click OK.

It says
"Visio PIA is being used instead of forcing Visual Studio .NET to create its own COM interop assembly in your project's location. With a typical Visio installation, if the .Net Framework version 1.1 is installed on your computer, the Visio PIA is installed in the global assembly cache (GAC).

Try repairing your visio installation. My references have been messed up by
applying the office update for Visio. If that doesn't work try a new install
and don't apply the update.
