Is there an Intellisense Object?

I am working on a custom app that has similar functionality as Intellisense
but it does not use the Intellisense object.

Can you use the Intellisense object? Has anyone done it? Any documentation
(google has failed me on this so far)?

thanks,

What kind of application is it? Are you just looking for word
completion or are you developing a custom IDE for programming?

Either case, you would need a dictionary of available "phrases", then
in the OnKeypress (or similar) event you would need to check for
partial matchesand display the nearest match.

Intellisense, for the most part and from my understanding, has its
cache of objects and methods. You can add to this by assigning
parameters and using reflection in your libraries so that Intellisense
picks it up as you use it. (Which is what happens with MS core
libraries and Namespaces, at least with .Net.)

It is for word completion.

I've got the class library and first pass of the application built and
working using all custom code. It pretty much does what you mention. I was
thinking a better way might be to use the Intelliense object. I've found
some help on modifying the class stucture for use in VS, but I'm looking to
use it in a stand-alone application.
thanks,

lee

Have you considered using Smart Tags?

Heard about them way back when and promptly forgot about them ;)

Not everyone that will need this application will have Office XP (actually
I'm the only one in the group that does not have it. I'm the 'standard
corporate desktop' testing guy on this team ;) But Smart Tags do look
promising. All I would need to do is build the XML files that define the
class structure and then point Word to the XML files?

As I understand it yes, SmartTags could prove an ideal solution and may even
become more useful when integrated with a Research Task Pane or the
Information Bridge Framework. I've been developing a series of hosted
services that will require the use of those implementations so I put a bit
of time evaluating the possibilities.

Sorry to bother you again, but I have another question once I started
looking into SmartTags.

Is it possible to fire the Smart Tag word completion on the '.' key press?
So far it only looks like it is when you click on the little blue 'i'.

I think you may be correct but then again perhaps using whatever character
you want may be supported when using the AccessKey property. Try the
following for example...

// Search strategy
google: accesskey site:microsoft. com

//SmartTags newsgroup

Yesterday I typed in some C++ code that called a function with two ints.
