I have an add-in for Word 2007 developed using VS2008/.NET 3.5. What do I need to do in order for Mac users to use this add-in with their Word 2008? (or did MS made sure it would be impossible to do...)

Thanks guys, you saved me a lot of time.

Its not standard/possible. The .NET Framework is not available on Mac.

Yes, but the Mono libraries do not have anything like this as far as I know.

The Mac version of Word is a totally different beast internally. AFAIK, the only documented "plugin" API for Word on the Mac is its AppleScript interface. It might be useful for what you want to do but you'd probably be close to starting from scratch.
