I haave some elaborate training tutorials that I wrote in 2003 using the
Microsoft Assistant. None run in 2007 even though "Assistant" is a proper VBA
function. When I searched for Assistant in the Help system, MS says "It's
gone." What is available so all my tutorials aren't extinct?

Mmmm. Best would probably be a Custom Task Pane, although you'd have to move
your code to a COM Add-in in order to create one. Custom Task Panes aren't
supported in VBA.
