      • Hi, I have started getting this when running my VSTO project inside the IDE. It was working before I deleted a couple of sheets out. If I create a new VSTO project it works fine. The DLL is getting created and is the right name. I've also turned on all exception under debugging, but it gives me no more information. Oh, and there is nothing in the details box! I am at a bit of a loss. Thanks Ray

I was about to create a class for a custom datasource object to implement this functionality in 15-20 lines of code (I hope). Then I thought, perhaps a more elegant way existed. It just ought to have come out from the team so resourceful as the one that wrote VSTO.
