The problem is that the only test we have been given is to test that the node HKCR\Interface\{000C0601-0000-0000-C000-000000000046} exists. However, that node has no values and the Microsoft installer has no way to check just for the existence of a node. So, wh ...Show All

  Hi, I found the article by Eric about User Define Function is very useful! Moreover, I face a question now is that this class is completely separated from my VSTO2005 project, I mean, this Addin class is more or less like providing few "Helper Functions" only, and I'd like to know how I can create UDFs and work with my custom Business object For example, I've created a DataSet and binded to a DGV in ActionPane, and then now, I'd like to cr ...Show All
