I'm aware of the Substance look and feels and that they have a Office 2007 look-a-like look and feel. But this look and feel doesn't look like the Office 2007 design at all, the colors are a lot different for example. Are there other look and feels which mimic the Office 2007 more accurately? ...
I’m faced with the task to give business users the possibility to edit generic structured data in Microsoft Word 2007. The structure of the data (an xml representation of a form) and the data is accessed through web services. I believe that the solution is VSTO, but have no experience with it. So I’m looking for design advice to choos...
We currently have an application that works with Outlook 2003. In order to get the owner of a shared contact folder, we simply call: Redemption.RDOSessionClass.GetFolderFromID() and then took that folder and got the RDOFolder.Store.Name property. However, when trying this with a shared contact folder in Outlook 2007, the RDOFolder.Store...
Does Office 2007 PIA also require Office 2007 to be installed? Can I deploy Office 2007 PIA with VSTO 3.0 (without having Office 2007 installed)? EDIT: I have a windows application that generates MS Word files. I have added the Office 2007 PIA as custom pre-requisite in the setup, but Office 2007 PIA needs MS Office 2007 to be installed...
It USED to be the case in Office 2003 that you could find "macros" and -- IIRC -- you had a "record macro" option. But, in PowerPoint 2007, under View->Macros, you get a macro box. None of the options are "record". If you put in a name, you can select "create", but that takes you to the VB editor. If you edit the slide manually, it does...
Hi to all, I currently have Office 2007 with BCM installed on my new laptop, and it's getting annoying that Outlook 2007 seems to crash on a regular basis, which seems to be because I work from home and the data connection is unstable to the server. My two fold question is : a) Is there any way to use BCM2007 with an old version of Offi...

First of all, my question is not quite the same as http://stackoverflow.com/questions/370407/is-office-2007-pia-deployment-possible-without-office-2007 I am not looking to use the PIA's yet. The IT engineers would ideally like to deploy the 2007 PIA's to everyone's computers before they upgrade Office 2007. This way there is fewer thi...
In Word 2007, a user may update the applied styles by selecting the "Reset to Quick Styles from XYZ Template" in the Change Styles menu option. Does anyone know of a way to automate this?

Try recording a macro in Word 2007, notice you can't do a thing to pictures. (Or is this a local issue with my machine?) And I can't even find the Picture / Image object within the Word Object Ref. What gives? ...
I'm considering using our SVN repository to manage all our documents. We mostly use Office 2007 (docx, xlsx) files. I thought the x was for xml but opening these files in notepad reveals a binary format. I'm looking to find out what people's experience is with using svn to manage these kinds of files. Someone told me that SVN isn't...

I've recently been using Excel and Powerpoint 2007, and it's seems clear that the shapes are using WPF. Edit - I know the shapes have existed in Office for ever, that is not my question. Look at the fill possibilites for shapes in 2007, look at that gradient fill, look at its parameters - that's the same as WPF as far I as I can see. S...

My add in is in VSTO 2005, and it's for Office 2007. The only way I see to accomplish this is to subscribe for the Outlook events but after a couple hou...
I'm working on an Outlook add-in that requires the Office specific FileDialog to interoperate with a Sharepoint site; the common file dialog doesn't have the interoperability. I know that both Word and Excel have a get_fileDialog method under Globals.ThisAddIn.Application.Application, but Outlook doesn't seem to. How do I launch an Outlo...
Using VBA, can I find out the value of a text (combobox) control on the Word 2007 ribbon? Say I'd want to read the currently selected font name in the "Home" tab. I've seen an example using the IAccessible interface to do some interaction with the Ribbon (namely enumerating it), but it seems reading a control value is not possible. Is ...

So this the scenario: a user opens up my app. He/she then chooses to be trained in one of the most common MS Office applications (Word,Excel,Outlook, etc).
