Even the COM purist at Redmond break their
own Law of "Inmutability". This is what's needed
if you don't know which version of Excel
you're working with:

pXL.CreateInstance ("Excel.Application");
vt.vt = VT_BOOL;
vt.boolVal = TRUE;
#ifdef _EXCEL_9_OFFICE_2000_
pXL->PutVisible(0, vt);
#else
pXL->PutVisible( vt );
#endif
