How to install office version 11 in GAC

A new PC with XP PRO and Office 2003 preloaded along with Framework 1.1.

We since loaded the Framework 2.0 on the machine and attempted to load a
ClickOnce application and the following error shows up.

"Unable to install or run the application. The application requires that the
assembly office Version 11.0.0.0 be installed in the Global Assembly Cache
(GAC) first."

How do I do this???

Rather than knee jerk and put everything in the GAC, determine the root cause
of the problem. One possibility, for example, is assemblies set up as a COM+
application. Why does it need it in the GAC, since not every ClickOnce
application requires this?

"Why does it need it in the GAC" -- because it says it does.
The program has one routine in it that builds a Excel spread sheet.

I did see on the PC that I normally use that it is in the GAC but how did it
get there and if it's not there what do you do?
