Hello,

I have a Visual Basic 6 program that creates Microsoft Word documents by referencing the MSWORD.OLB.  Can someone please provide me the version & the default file location where this file should be installed that Microsoft Office 2010 is using.

Microsoft 365 and Office | Word | For home | Windows

The olb files are normally installed in the root directory of the Office installation.

Assuming a 32bit OS and the default installation location, that would be C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office14

Note that you need to have installed the full version of Office 2010 and not the "click-to-run" version. With the "click-to-run" version, almost all files are located on a virtual Q drive and won't be accessible by you.
