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.
explain the use of "imports" at the top of each module. i am stumbling through development of an excel app in vsto and learning as i go.
in my project references i have added references and imported namespaces of everything that looks relevant to excel and office. am i then to add "imports" to the top of each module where relevant.

before i added the imports microsoft.office.interop.excel i had no access to xldirection method. what other import namespaces(????) are needed and in what modules?
i have a couple of books that i am referring to, but none seem to start at the beginning and explain what this imports does / is for.
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.

View 3 RepliesWhat's the best way to store that the app is beta?You can't enter letters in the assembly info version (a "b" would be great).So is a setting who is set to Beta = True the best? I don't want to hardcode it, I want it to be at one place in the program.

View 3 RepliesI have a simple application that stores settings using My.Settings. When built using .Net 4.0, it works fine. If I change to build with .Net 3.5 Client (or just .Net 3.5) I get an error 'An error occurred creating the configuration section handler for userSettings/My_Application.My.MySettings: Could not load file or assembly 'System, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089''.

I've tried using the VS 2010 beta to edit some real projects, and it is next to unusable due to performance issues. The cpu is more or less constantly at 100%, and most often the code editor uses around 10 seconds to respond to any text input. If I introduce a couple of compile errors things get even worse. Are there some drastical performance improvements that are planned in the VB editor before release, or are there special things that might trigger this?

We have currently upgraded our development machines to Windows 7 and Office 2007. We have a vb 2008 app that references 2003 Office components to use for mail-merging to word.We loaded up our app in the vb environment today and were instantly greeted with missing components/functions which are related to the 2003 Office components. We can update these to use the Office 2007 components/functions instead, however we are unsure whether after doing this our vb app will work with machines only with Office 2003 on. can machines with Office 2003 on work with our vb app that references Office 2007 components?

View 2 RepliesI have written an application which uses the Outlook object library to send an e-mail with information from a textbox. I programmed this on Windows 7 and Office 2010, which was a mistake as most of the clients will be using Windows XP and Office 2007. I am getting an error when running the application on Windows XP/2007:
Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook, Version=14.0.0.0 .... etc
I understand that this is because I have not loaded the Outlook 12.0 assemblies, however I am having trouble adding the assemblies on my Win7/2010 programming machine. I have downloaded the standalone Office 2007 PIAs however the Outlook 12.0 doesnt appear on the list, and when I try and add just the Office 12.0 I get an error.
is there a way to standardise and make the application work with both 2007 and 2010 outlook machines? I think it is possible, I have read some articles making the application choose the correct version, however cannot figure out how to.
