Hey All,

I have downloaded and installed the Office Suite 2007 Beta and noticed a
development feature called something like ".Net Development Support".

I was wondering if anyone has any info regarding new .Net support under
Office 2007?

Thanks,

Todd
 
Hi TCook,

This option in Setup is also in Office 2003 and does the same thing: it
installs the Office PIAs (Primary Interop Assemblies) that allow managed
code to communicate with the Office COM objects.

Other than that, I think only InfoPath has any .NET programming support
built in. It includes VSTA (the .NET equivalent of VBA).

The next version of Visual Studio Tools for Office (VSTO) is being expanded
for Office 2007 to support the new Office programming interfaces (custom
task panes and RibbonX), as well as COM Add-ins. But this is part of Visual
Studio, not Office.
