New Features for Visual Studio 2008 Office Projects in SP1

Posted By: Beth Massi | Aug 29th @ 12:49 PM

In this interview, Kris Makey, a Developer on the Office Client team, shows us a couple new features of Office projects in Visual Studio 2008 SP1. First he demonstrates a new error logging feature that will log any end-user install errors to the Event Log making it much easier to tell what went wrong. He also shows us how you can place Winforms controls directly on document surfaces.

For more information on Office Development with Visual Studio visit the developer portal http://msdn.com/vsto and the team blog http://blogs.msdn.com/vsto/.

Enjoy,

Managed controls on Word documents will be very handy.
i.e. Finance departments who need Team data regularly, from teams who don't like exposing DBes.
