    - Word automation from a Web Service Brain, Your project seems interesting. I am working on a project where we also need to automate word report generation on the Server. However I do not know how having the word documents as VSTO objects helps Also I do not know how you do NOT need to have word installed on the Server We were initially looking at having Word Projects (VSTO Approach) but since we did not want each word doc to be compiled in a dll , we went the Word Interop approach. We have about 330 word templates with bookmarks. Since Installation of word on server is not recommended , we are know looking at PDF solution. However I found that even Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Professional and using Acrobat SDK is not licensed and recommended for server if we go with PDF Templates and xml data. However I am interested in finding out how with using Word 2003 Word documents templates with bookmarks ( to hold data) and using Interop based solution can we go with Server based solution using xml and without installing word on server I can get the document data in xml format. Basically I am interested what is needed for your soluton that you mention to work. Our templates currently in Word 2003 with bookmarks. Requirements : Merge Word 2003 Templates with bookmarks with Data from xml Print Word 2003 Document from Server. Save as PDF also ( currently I have GhostScript API to do this ....Word to PostScript file and PS to PDF using GhostScript API ) Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    - Deployment path setting Hello, I've developed an addin for Word 2007 using VSTO 2005 SE. For the setup file, I'm using the default setup file when I created the project. My question is, how can I set a default installation folder for my addin For example:- When the setup file launched, I want to make the *.msi file to automatically install the addin to a predefined folder. It means that no user interaction required, no need to choose an installation path and no clicking needed. Just a direct installation like the MS Office 2007 PIA msi setup file. Can it be done Hope someone can help me about this. Regards, Westman Tag: Visual Studio Tools for Office Debugging VSTO SE/Outlook on mapped drive fails, works from the C drive. Office

    - Adding a large amount of contacts I've hit a road block. I am writing a .NET Outlook (2003) plugin to update my users contacts from a database that our clients update. I have managed to get the plugin button up, and clicking on the button gets the contacts and starts adding them. However, the code has added the 249th contact item, I start getting First Chance exceptions. Is there some kind of restriction that stops me from adding more contacts This is a huge issue for new users in the group, becuase we have over 5000 email address that need to be pushed out to the Contacts Folder. Here is my code for adding the contacts. Please tell me if I am doing something wrong or if there is a restriction: foreach ( DataRow dr in dt.Rows) { try { Outlook. ContactItem ci = (Outlook. ContactItem )newcontacts.Items.Add( Outlook. OlItemType .olContactItem); ci.CompanyName = dr[ "CustomerName" ].ToString(); ci.FullName = dr[ "ContactName" ].ToString(); ci.CustomerID = dr[ "CustomerNumber" ].ToString(); if (dr[ "ContactNumber" ].ToString() != "" ) ci.BusinessTelephoneNumber = dr[ "ContactNumber" ].ToString(); ci.Email1Address = dr[ "ContactEmail" ].ToString(); ci.Save(); } catch ( Exception ex) { Console .WriteLine(ex.ToString()); } Tag: Visual Studio Tools for Office Debugging VSTO SE/Outlook on mapped drive fails, works from the C drive.

    - Attaching custom actions Pane to all documents !!! Hi All, After reading quite a few posts and trying out various shortcuts or hacks to acheive an " Application Level Task Pane " for Word 2003, i have really come to a grinding halt !! few of the paths that i followed were 1. Tried to modify the XML of a WORD document by adding the _AssembleName=* and _AssemblyLocation custom document properties.... I am now trying to acheive this by Attaching Managed Code Extensions to Documents...still work in progress i guess my question would be that in one of these posts Misha Shneerson did point out that it was possible to attach a task pane at an Application level but could only be acheived by someone like her who knows the internals of ActionsPane and VSTO and that it wasnt for the *****Faint Hearted***** .... still trying to locate that post... so if any one could point me in the right direction or suggest an alternative, that would be great !!! I know that Custom Task panes are possible in word 12/ 2007... but i def. require to achieve this with word 2003 / Office Pro edition... as our target audience is not likely to move to office 2007 for quite some time !!! If i haven't been clear please do ask for clarifications !!! tha, koms Tag: Visual Studio Tools for Office Debugging VSTO SE/Outlook on mapped drive fails, works from the C drive. Office

    - Convert a selection and convert it to rtf Hello all, Is there any way to take a selection from MS Word using VSTO, and convert that selection to rtf Right now here is the code which uses the clipboard: private string ConvertToRTF(Word. XMLNode node) { string strData = "" ; try { // Copy to clipboard (This will erase the clipboard contents that the user entered into here before!!! node.Range.Copy(); strData = Clipboard .GetText( TextDataFormat .Rtf); Clipboard .Clear(); } catch ( Exception ex) { Trace .WriteLineIf(logic.ASI3Reporting.TraceError, "Error converting to rtf: " + ex.ToString(), "Errors" ); string ss = ex.ToString(); } return strData; } The problem with the code is that the clipboard contents are now replaced with my selection thus replacing the value at the top of the clipboard stack so the end user won't have their original copied data. I need to copy this because this is the only way that I can get the selection converted to rtf. Another method would require saving the entire document to disk as rtf but this would only work for the entire document, whereas, I need to convert only a selection. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Tag: Visual Studio Tools for Office Debugging VSTO SE/Outlook on mapped drive fails, works from the C drive. Office

    - Support for multiple columns in Form Region controls Right, that's my point: In Orcas, you either use .NET controls or you use an .ofs file with olk* controls, which can be bound to Outlook properties, but you can't mix and match them in the same region. In VSTO 2005 SE, any ActiveX control in theory should work on a region page, but I've heard of people having some problems and it hasn't been done much, I imagine. I'd probably stick with the OlkListBox control if it were my project. Tag: Visual Studio Tools for Office Debugging VSTO SE/Outlook on mapped drive fails, works from the C drive. Office

    - Unlocking a project... What's wrong with that forum Been there. Researched that. Found no solution. Wrong Oh, I'm sorry. I thought 'Tools for Office' meant Tools for Office. It's free It's not wanted. A solution is what's wanted. Since you seem to know all about this place, point me to the right place, Dennis. But don't point to the other Office forums... OK so You can perhaps handle it but what about other who take part of the solution. I can't be responsible for anyone else's actions but my own. I would like to think people would be responsible with good information, but that would be nieve. Besides, there are plenty of Excel cracks out there and if I was really after a crack, why would I come here I would go some place else for that rather than try to program my own. Crackers (not hackers) are lazy and wouldn't go through that much effort. Or do You believe we have a private conversation in a public thread. Do you realy think I'm that unintelligent I'm gritting my teeth because the last thing I want to do is start an arguement on a Microsoft website! That would be dumb. If you have an answer you would like to keep out of the public domain, I would be more than willing to keep the conversation private to avoid misplacement of potentially dangerous information. I just don't understand why you have to be so difficult. I said in the beginning to point me in the right direction (other than where I had already been) if this was indeed the wrong place to be. If you have any other resources, please post them. Thanks. Tag: Visual Studio Tools for Office Debugging VSTO SE/Outlook on mapped drive fails, works from the C drive. Office

    - word range to html? thanks for the reply. the clipboard sounds like the right option for me but i can't make it work... i seperate parts of the word documents into different objects (i have a special class for that called Section). each section has a few parameters and a Range which is the range from the original word document that contains the data for that section (the data can be anything from text, images, table, etc..). i need to transform this data into html, so this is what i did: Code Snippet m_text.Select(); m_text.Copy(); if ( Clipboard .ContainsText( TextDataFormat .Html)) Console .WriteLine( Clipboard .GetData( DataFormats .Html).ToString()); else Console .WriteLine( "no good: " + m_text.Text); (m_text is the Range object) all of the sections give the same result: "no good: " + the text of the section (the text is the right text). what am i doing wrong it looks like the content of the range does not go into the clipboard... thanks a lot!

    - Sending a copy of an Excel 2007 workbook as an attachment Hi, I'm currently attemping an Excel 2007 plugin. Part of this plugin involves a button that, when clicked, launches the "send mail" window of Outlook and attaches the last saved copy of the spreadsheet as an attachment. (The user would then fill in the recipient address, message subject, etc. in the same way as sending an e-mail with Outlook.) My problem is finding an example that would do this. My searches let me to this article, but I'm having difficulty converting it to C#. So, my questions: If the approach in the article I linked is correct, would someone assist me with getting the code to work with VSTO and C# If the approach in the article I linked is incorrect, would someone please provide a pointer to documentaion that explains the correct way of doing it Thanks --K Tag: Visual Studio Tools for Office Debugging VSTO SE/Outlook on mapped drive fails, works from the C drive.

    - Outlook add-in does not install and work properly on non development machines Hi Aravind, I could resolve this issue. Please refer to the following links http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb332051.aspx http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb332052.aspx Idea is to allow the security permissions for the addin to execute. This can be manually done by making use of caspol.exe or during the installation itself make use of SetSecurity project which comes with VSTO to set the security permissions. You have to also consider some registry settings of your addin "LoadBehaviour". This particular value of the addin has to be set to 3 instead of 2. If the value is 2, outlook does not attempts to load that particular addin. Regards, Kishore.

    - Advise the best way to create a link label in Word customization? Thanks Daniel, After fiddling with ActiveX controls and VBA security, I am arriving at the conclusion that fusing these two heterogenous technologies - VBA and VSTO is perhaps a bad idea and a big pain in the ***. I am now more inclined to completely switch to using only WinForm controls in my customization and let go of the fear that my users may suffer of this limitation. I have asked one user and he told me he never alters his Word's zoom because his monitor is wide enough to show the entire page at 100%. This is only a single opinion though, and I wonder if Microsoft has made a more representatvie survey regarding this issue. MS team has done a great and laborious job of implementing WinForm controls in documents in VSTO and I believe there should be a strong reasoning for this kind of implementation, even though the control scaling limitation. Can you tell me your reasons, just to set me at rest Oleg. Tag: Visual Studio Tools for Office Debugging VSTO SE/Outlook on mapped drive fails, works from the C drive. Office

I get a security error when I try to debug my VSTO SE/Outlook add-in from a mapped drive. If I move it to my c drive, it works.

The properties for the app are set to Trust Assembly Location=True.

The biggest issue is that I cannot have a centralized location for my code.

Any ideas

Re: Visual Studio Tools for Office Debugging VSTO SE/Outlook on mapped drive fails, works from the C drive.

Hello bob,

as I know you have to set the correct policy settings.

Normal the assemblies are in on your local drive to when you go into

control panel / management / .Net Framework 2.0 configuration / Configure Code Access Security Policy

In the treeview under User / Code_Groups / All-Code

you will see an entry VSTOProjects and for each addin a Unique ID

under the unique ID you will see an entry Debug

Select the Debug entry and click on Edit Code Group Properties

Open the Edit Membership Condition Tab and check the path in the Url field.

If here is a wrong value correct it and save this value.

Try again.

Maybe you have to use a full UNC Path here, not the mapped drive letter.

Sourcecode:

I would use SourceSafe or TeamFoundationServer to have a centralized place for the Sourcecode.

This will give you also the option to have some versioning.

Hope this helps,

greets, Helmut

Thanks Helmut.

I think I was just expecting the development environment for debugging to work without CAS settings. I applied my CAS policy and it works.

Thanks for the suggestions.
