Default Microsoft Office Compatability Pack uninstall

Is it possible to uninstall the Microsoft Office Compatability Pack? I don't
see anything in Add/Remove Programs with that name. Is it registered as
Microsoft Visual Studio Tools for Applications 2.0?

I'd like to uninstall it to see if it's responsible for an error that I'm
now getting when using ShellExecuteA to launch a .doc type file (Error 33).

Look under "Compatibility Pack for the 2007 Office system". Filed under C,
not within Microsoft Office

Thanks.

I've uninstalled but I'm still getting this error. Where do you suggest I
post concerning an error code from ShellExecuteA? I can't find Error code 33
documented anywhere.

It was a coding error. I had a CASE block evaluating all documented errors
with a CASE ELSE catching the rest. Turns out, anything returned by
ShellExecuteA above 32 is ok. So now my block makes a provision for that.
