Excel 2004 Script Not Working

Hi,

After installing Office 2004 I opened a large compiled script that moves
data between my FMP database and an Excel spreadsheet. All the Excel events
are now shown as raw event codes. For example:

tell application "Microsoft Excel"

+event XCELactv;
count the every +class cXLW;
set sheetCount to the result

If I write a new script, the similar statements compile and execute
properly:

tell application "Microsoft Excel"

activate
count the every worksheet
set sheetCount to the result

I still have both Excel X and Excel 2004 on the machine. Both are installed
in a disk partition that is not my boot volume (due to lack of space there).
I've tried copying the Excel 2004 app to the boot partition. I've tried
deleting Excel X from the other partition.

I also tried quitting Excel 2004 and launching Excel X. Now the small script
that did run with 2004 says it doesn't understand "Count every worksheet"

What can I do to put this script back in order? It's critical to my work. I
don't have the same problem with an Entourage script. That works fine.

Thanks,

Jack
