I've developed a Word template in VSTO. When published it consits of several files including a Setup.exe, several msi files etc.Due to the fact that my company's security policy won't allow me to store dlls and exes on the server I need an alternative way to provide all the necessary stuff to the end user. I thoght it would be enough if I:
1) execute the setup.exe file on each client machine (it says everything got properly installed)
2) upload the xxx.dotm file to sharepoint and register it
3) edit policy settings
but it doesn't. When a user creates a new Document inside sharepoint using "New"->"xxx" the requested document loads without any error message and show the document but Word won't load any extensions / ribbons etc.
I am trying to save a ListObject from a .NET 3.5 Excel 2007 VSTO Workbook to a new sheet (done) and save that new sheet to a new workbook (done) without that workbook requiring the VSTO customization file (!!!!!).
Has anyone had any luck with this? The only way I've had any success is just saving as a CSV file but that's not exactly acceptable in this case. I'd rather not save to a CSV just to copy back to a XLS file.
I am deploying sql express as a prerequisite. I have created a custom prerquisite using bootstrap manifest generator. The problem I have is replacing the template.ini file which exists in the sqlexpr32.exe cab file. Winrar and winzip allow me to open the sqlexpr32.exe but will not allow me to edit, add or replace the template.ini.I also cannot find the path where the sqlexpr32.exe extracts to as I want to use that path for the settings file eg "template.ini".[code]

I'm writing a VSTO add-in to add a button the Standard toolbar for all new MailItems in Outlook 2003. I've got it mostly finished, but I can't see to work out how to set the button's position on the taskbar I'd like to place it right next to the Send button.Here's the code I have so far.

I've never worked with VSTO and I've recently read all kinds of stuff about it. So I ask a theoretical question. I'm trying to make an addin which should (using buttons in it's own ribbon tab) upload the document to my website (it's like slideshare). The problem is that this file may be already uploaded and the user may be just trying to update it.
So I need a way to tell if this file has already been uploaded. I know the prediction can't be 100% accurate, that's why I'm going to ask the user with a dialog, but I need it to be fairly clever to alert the user if the file MAY BE is already uploaded.
This assumption can be client-side only, with a database of some sort (in the addin itself).I thought of recording the file's name and based on this I can decide if the file is new or it's already uploaded.
PS. Working on Office 2010 with the latest version of VSTO in VS 2010. My main .net language is VB but samples in C# are more than welcome (if you have ones).
I have a windows app that uses the shape control which is part of the MS power pack and requires Microsoft.VisualBasic.PowerPacks.Vs.dll. I am using Publish to build my app and I have tried to change the dll to Include in the properties page but nothing seems to work.
I need a way to have the file included and I am unable to find a external copy and I understand that I cannot just copy the dll from my PC into the installation folder
I wrote this little AddIn sample to show you a performance issue and how to avoid it?It is just a parse of an excel workbook and runned in the main excel process (0) and a random thread created by the timer.

I have a VSTO Outlook 2007 add-in that loads on startup. When it loads it does the following: [Code] When the email is sent the app works fine. But when I click on the Button, then the add in fires 2x times and when I use the context menu it also fires 2x times. Any idea why this might be?

My google skills have failed me on this, so I'm hoping that someone could point me in the right direction.I have a windows forms application that writes data to a datatable, which is then manipulated & saved into an access database. I am now looking to retrieve the data and write it out into a word document.
Have built a project and associated it with a Setup&Deployment Project. The S&D project needs to contain 2 main folders (under User's Desktop) with various formats of files (xmls, txts, dlls) inside them and several subfolders. How can i copy/import these 2 folders and there sub-files/folders into my s&d project?
When adding them in the usual way, they are copied and defined a source path onto the current pc. You can understand what errors this might create when an another targeted pc does not contain those files to the exact location. Is there any way to copy them locally or somehow import them?
I would like to automatically create an Outlook rule (move email containing something in subject to folder xyz) but dont know how to achieve this. Of course I can create the rule and export it to a .rwz file. This file can be imported manually, but how can I import it automatically?
Can I import a rule through my VSTO 2005 Outlook (2003) Addin? Or can I create the rule from within this addin?
I am designing a shared add-in using VB.Net 2008 and VSTO that has to fire up when any MS Office App is started. It has to work for both 2002, 2003 and 2007 applications. I have managed to put together a working add-in that pops up a test message stating the version of Office and the Application name and tested this across all the apps ok.
The next part of the solution is to code the application specific code that needs to run for document auditing and corporate protective marking as well as, for example; in Excel checking that all the Add-Ins are linked to the Network Add-Ins folder.
My approach from now was going to be to late bind against the application object and set one of my typed (e.g. Excel) application object references which exist in the code to this object.
I have a VS.net project where I need to add a reference to Microsoft.sharepoint.dll where can I find the dll. I am running my web application on XP Professional box and I cannot install WSS 2.0 on my machine.
I need to programmatically access a sharepoint site which is on WSS 2.0 from aSP.net application.
I am trying to manipulate SPListItem permissions on folders in a document library but I can't seem to add any new permissions, though removing security inheritance works beautifully.I've done my best to create a slimmed down version of the code for testing purposes. The function GetListItem returns the SPListItem we are working with based on the URL. The item.BreakRoleInheritance(False) works great and I've verified properly breaks inheritance and clears out any permissions, I've also tried it with the True flag and verified that all original permissions are copied from the parent.
The code below throws no exceptions and as far as I can tell appears to work fine, until I check the actual permissions on the folder in my document library and see that "Viewers" is not listed.
I've built a VSTO add-in for Microsoft Word and deployed to a webserver. Installation goes off without a hitch. When I create an updated version of the application and redeploy it to the webserver, the add-in correctly detects that there's a new version and attempts to update it. This is where I'm running into the following error (the "xxx" indicates that I had to censor something):url...The customization cannot be installed because another version is currently installed and cannot be upgraded from this location. To install this version of the customization,first use Add or Remove Programs to uninstall this program: xxx. Then install the new customization from the following location: url...This appears to me as if I left a local reference of some sort in my Project, but I can't find anything of the sort. The only reference to this file is within the xxx.vbproj.FileListAbsolute.txt file that's generated in the bin/Debug folder.Not sure if this is also a clue, but I'm seeing Registry Keys added referencing this as the location of the VSTO Project Manifest.
