Should be possible. Here's how I did it in Excel VBA: - Sub aBook()
-
'This Macro creates a workbook, a button, and a code module
-
Dim wb As Workbook
-
Dim ws As Worksheet
-
Dim s As Variant
-
Dim btn As OLEObject
-
Dim lLines As Long
-
' Hide VBE Window = No screen flashes
-
Application.VBE.MainWindow.Visible = False
-
' Create a new Workbook with one worksheet, Cmds
-
Set wb = Workbooks.Add
-
Set ws = Worksheets.Add
-
ws.Name = "Cmds"
-
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
-
For Each s In wb.Worksheets ' Delete the rest of the worksheets
-
If s.Name <> "Cmds" Then s.Delete
-
Next s
-
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
-
-
' Create a button
-
Set btn = ws.OLEObjects.Add(ClassType:="Forms.CommandButton.1", _
-
Left:=50, Top:=25, Width:=75, Height:=20)
-
btn.Name = "cmdWork"
-
btn.Object.Caption = "Press"
-
-
' Find the associated code module and create the click event handler
-
For Each s In wb.VBProject.VBComponents
-
If s.Name = ws.CodeName Then
-
With s.CodeModule
-
lLines = .CountOfLines
-
.InsertLines lLines + 1, "Sub cmdWork_Click()"
-
.InsertLines lLines + 2, " MsgBox ""Back to Work!"""
-
.InsertLines lLines + 3, "End Sub"
-
End With
-
Exit For
-
End If
-
Next s
-
End Sub
Obviously, you have some translation to do.
But, I have had a lot of trouble trying to do the stuff you have already done. Can you outline the steps to creating the Addin with C# 2005? I want to add a dialog box. I could do it with VB6, but am stuck with .Net.
thanx frnd
its working, just need little translation.
As far as creating addin in C# is concerned,
there are two ways
1. VSTO addin
2. Shared addin
VSTO is future but still little still not support all office applications like access.
main steps for creating shared addin
1 .In the New Project dialog box, expand Other Projects under Project Types, select Extensibility Projects, and then select the Shared Add-in template.
2 . Type xyz as the name of the add-in and then click OK.
3. When the Extensibility Wizard appears, follow these steps:
4. select Create an Add-in using Visual C#, and then click Next.
5. select the any host applications, and then click Next:
Automatically it wil generate a lot of code for u.
The class of interest is Connect class
add following reference in connect class
using Core = Microsoft.Offic e.Core;
using Excel = Microsoft.Offic e.Interop.Excel ;
using System.Windows. Forms;
I have just given here is just abstract description
these are two links to gud one to start with

Hi,
I created a COM AddIn for Word that performs the functions
that it needs to, but I needed to add the ability for the
toolbar created by the COM AddIn to remember it's last
position and whether it was docked or not. I added the
following code to my "OnConnection" function but it fails
with an error, "Run-time exception thrown :
System.IO.IOException - Bad file name or number."
With applicationObject.CommandBars("SampleToolbar")

Hello
I have to create a small addin which works on Powerpoint, Word, Outlook, and Excel on Office 2000, XP, and 2003.
This addin consists in adding 2 new Buttons in the "File" Menu of office. This is properly done, but the events which should be triggered with the button.click method are not triggered in Word.
I don't understand because it properly works in the 3 others host applications.
If someone has an issue, I would be most grateful....

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
Here is my compilation command:

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
