• Visual Studio Tools for Office ItemSend Event - Post Send?

• Visual Studio A minor gotcha: reserved words

  One small point that I noticed last week: There are a number of hidden reserved words that cannot be used as identifiers in the domain model. I tried to include in my domain model the concept of an exception, in a class which I called 'Exception'.
