• Visual Studio Hosting the standard editor..

  Hi, I would like to simulate Code Browser (http://code-browser.sf.net) in Visual Studio. What it does is basically taking outlining a step further and making it look quite like the vb editor which allows you to see only one sub at a time.

• Visual Studio Tools for Office Creating Rich Reports in MS Word

  Hello, it seems that most folks are using VSTO differently from what I need; I have two travel agents who already both have complex database applications in MS Access, but what they need is to output richly formatted documents & reports in MS Word.
