Pivot Table functionality changes with OWC 11??

[Kareem Badr]

I have code that creates pivot tables using OWC.
When viewed on a machine that is running Office 2000, and OWC 10, the
pivot table is displayed.
On a box with Office 2003 and OWC 11, the pivot table is not
displayed. No errors appear, and the screen looks very similar to how
a screen would look if you tried to view the pivot table on a machine
that did not have OWC 10 installed correctly.

Did something change that would make my pivot table object not work on
OWC 11?
My first thought was that maybe the object classid changed and OWC 11
doesn't recognize the OWC 10 classid. That seems like it would cause a
lot of problems, though, so I doubt MS would do that.

Has anyone successfully used pivot tables in both OWC 10 and OWC 11?
If so, did anything in the code have to change for Office 2003?

These activeX controls are COM objects. Because of that they cannot be the
same object. They will have different CLSID's which must be registered or
installed separately. You will need to run the OWC11 setup program or
manually register the new dll.
