Excel XP does not recognize SmartTag Dll

I've created a SmartTag assembly containing Action and Recognizer classes.
The assembly is COMVisible and "Register for COM Interop" is TRUE for the
project. I can see my classes has been registered with the name
"MySmartTagDll.STAction" and "MySmartTagDll.STRecognizer" in the registry
CLASSES_ROOT folder. Also, I've created two keys in Action and Recognizer of
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\Common\Smart Tag\

The problem is that Excel 2003 recognizes my dll but not Excel XP. The
SmartTags work fine when I am using Excel 2003 and I can also see them listed
on Tools>>AutoCorrect Options>>Smart Tags list. I have both installed on my
system running Windows XP SP2.

regards
