Problem with mail merge with Word 2003 via an Access 2007 runtime

P

I don't know if this is the correct forum for this question, but here it goes.

I've created a customized application for use on a machine that does not
have Access 2007 nor Word 2007. The target machine does have Office 2003.
On my design machine, I do have Office 2007. In the custom app, I've equipped
a button to run the MailMerge wizard which gets its data from a table from
within the Access 2007 app. The mail merge works flawessly. Now here's the
problem, when I run the custom application using Access Runtime 2007, I get
the following message when I try to use the identical mail merge:

"The wizard you've requested is not installed or is in a bad state. Please
install or reinstall the wizard."

Is it possible to install a 2007 wizard under runtime? Is their a DLL or
reference that I need to install in my custom app? Is it possible that this
mail merge wizard cannot be called from Word 2003? In the end do I need to
have the user upgrade to Access 2007?

Any advice or help appreciated.

Peter
