Hi there. Can I pick some brains, please?

I need an application of mine to use an old version of the Rich Text control without replacing the new one for others, so DLL/COM redirection looked just the thing, but this is described as working for DLLs/OCXs loaded from an application .EXE file.

My application is launched from a Word template. That template references a DLL which references another DLL which references a custom OCX which makes use of the Rich Textbox control.

Is there any way I can get this VBA-launched app use a local version of the Rich Textbox control like DLL/COM redirection is supposed to work for an .EXE app?

Thanks.
