Trouble with Office XP PIAs and VS.NET2005 Beta1

Hi...

Trying to use the Office XP PIA's, and it ain't working.

I have installed and registered them into the GAC per the instructions, and I've checked the Registry - sure enough, they're all registered as thePrimaryInterface Assemblies. However, when I try to add a Reference to the Word Object Library, the only one that shows up in the COM list is v. 9.0, not the 10.0... version from the XP PIA's.

When I select the 9.0 version, VS adds a reference to the Word dll but the CopyLocal property is set to "true"... I don't think it's supposed to be if it's using the Primary assembly.

I need to get this dumb program to open Word and manipulate literally hundreds of .doc files... any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.
