Reverting back to Word97's "Save as.." File Format Description

Hi,
I'm an application developer and I'm currently facing a problem in a legacy
system written during the days of Office 97.
My organisation has migrated from using MS Office 97 to MS Office XP a
couple of years back but none of the users or application developers back
then discover that actually one of the functionality of an existing system,
which is to convert a word document to a web page, wasn't able to work.
Why?
Because the VB program was written such that it's searching through the
"Save As.." dialog for a string call "HTML Document (*.htm; *.html)", once
found then proceed with the conversion. However, the versions after Office97
all had their that particular File Format Description changed to "Web Page
(*.htm; *.html), thus, triggered an error.
I understand the easier way out is to edit that programming code and
re-compile the project but that was not of comfort level at my management
side.
Thus, I'm currently + urgently looking for solution to edit the File Format
Description listbox so that to comply to the legacy system.
Apologies for the lengthy email but I hoped I'd expressed sufficiently for
your understanding and assistance.
regards
.
