This book is the definitive book on VSTO 2008 programming, written by the inventors and lead developer of the technology. VSTO is a set of tools that allow professional developers to use the full power of Visual Studio to put code behind Excel, Word, Outlook, and InfoPath. VSTO provides functionality never before available to the Office developer. For the first time, VSTO 2008 is now an integral part of Visual Studio; previous versions were available only as add-ons. This should increase the use of VSTO greatly.
The authors know this technology as no one else does, and have put together as comprehensive a guide to it as possible. Not only do they provide extensive practical examples, they also explain the 'why' behind things. They cover all the new features of Office 2007 and Visual Studio 2008, including integration with WPF, WF, and LINQ. This is the only book professional developers will need to take full advantage of VSTO, whether they are new to VSTO or are experienced with older versions of VSTO.
