hi all

how i can convert html to docx??

We have a word based application. We create a Word Addin & when trying to connect the addin using the statements :

Microsoft.Office.Core.COMAddInMyAddin=null;
            bool bFound =false;try{foreach(Microsoft.Office.Core.COMAddInMyAddin1inWordApp.COMAddIns){MyAddin=MyAddin1;if(DtsAddin.Description=="My ComAddin"){MyAddin.Connect=true;
                        bFound =true;break;}}}

Just as the code hits the line MyAddin.Connect = true; it throws the below exception:-

A first chance exception of type 'System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException' occurred in MyWordApp.exe Additional information: Error in the DLL (Exception from HRESULT: 0x800401F9 (CO_E_ERRORINDLL)) & the Word application quits after this.

I googled to find some resolution to this but to no help. Can anyone help me on this to avoid the exception.

Thanks/Saurav.

Hi,

we are trying to save embedded images from html-mails to the disk.

We first run through all attachments and if the attachment is embedded we try to save it with attachment.SaveAsFile()

But unfortunately with embedded images the attachment.SaveAsFile() method is not working.

It always throws an exception with the following message:

"Cannot save the attachment. Cannot add the attachment; no data source was provided"

Did we miss something? Is there another way to save embedded images to disk?

Thank you

Regards Mark

When opening 2 or more macro-enabled word documents with any Word VSTO add-in installed, if the first document is closed, Word will stop responding. If the second document is closed before the first, the crash does not occur.

Setup:

1. Word 2010, install the most basic VSTO Word 2010 add-in (create one from scratch and build).

2. Open Word. In Trust Center | Macro Settings, I had "Disable all macros with notification" selected and in Trust Center | Trusted Locations, I checked "Disable all Trusted Locations."

3. Close Word.

4. Open the 1st macro enabled document ( .docm ) and select Enable content.

5. Open the 2nd .docm file.

6. Close the 1st .docm file.

7. Word 2010 may crash with the following event information.

Given an Excel add-in developed with VSTO 2010 with a ClickOnce-based installer generated from the VS publish feature: can sys admins deploy this add-in to Windows desktops using Microsoft System Management Server? Thanks.

Hi,

it's easy to find information on how to detect CTR, like this:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/ff864733.aspx

This page hints at a "virtual application environment", but where do I find information on which behaviours exactly are different in a CTR version? We are in fact having a particular problem with using a PDF printer within our Word addin running on Word 2013 CTR, but for the start we'd like to have some general information. Can anyone hint me at appropriate docs?

Best regards,

Florian

I have released signed document-level VSTO app by ClickOnce. I use my own untrusted certificate. It's app distributed among university students.

On some computers we encounter a problem with trusted location, so the app cannot be installed there.

I found advices to set trusted location (even with subfolders) via Excel on end-user PC. It unfortunately does not help (even with PC restart). I have found advices to set some values registries which sounds a bit nerdy (as I got used to comfortable and direct release via ClickOnce).

I would like to avoid preparing Windows Installer or buying trusted certificate.

Any help? Thank you.

VSTO is very powerful concept, but the deployment part is really frustrating (compare to old-school VBA from user view).

I have created an Add-In that imports data from one workbook sheet into a second workbook by clicking on a button in the Add-In. When the data has been transferred the user clicks a second button to validate and transform the data into a 2nd sheet that uses an imported XML schema. Then when a third button is clicked the data is written out to an XML file and thenimmediatelyread back in using a xmldocument.load function after which the outerxml is written to a database table as a string into a text data type column. Everything is functioning correctly the way I have it set up. 

What I don't like doing is writing out the XML data as a file and turning right around and reading it back in to get at the outerxml to write to the table. Does anyone know of a way to merge the data on the sheet with the schema into XML format to write as a string into the table without writing it out as a XML file and then reading it back in?

This is some of the code I am using: 

Dim objMapToExport As Excel.XmlMap

Dim xmlInDoc As New Xml.XmlDocument

objMapToExport = Globals.ThisWorkbook.XmlMaps("Employees_Map")

If objMapToExport.IsExportable Then

     Globals.ThisWorkbook.SaveAsXMLData("XMLFile.xml",   objMapToExport)

End If

xmlInDoc.Load("XMLFile.xml")

UploadData(xmlInDoc.OuterXml)

Hi,

I created a Custom Task Pane in an AddIn for Excel 2007.

This CTP is docked on top.

I would like to set a minimum height for this pane, so that it cannot be less than this size.

I tried to play with the minimum size of the user control which is embedded in this pane, but no good result.

And I couldn't find anything to do that?

Any ideas ?

And I have another question related to the minimum size.

If you resize the pane to the minimum (docked on top), you will see a display problem.

The bar which allows you to resize this pan is not correctly painted. You have a black line.

I tried to invalidate the window, and refresh it but nothing changed.

Is it a known problem? And is there a workaround?

Pascal.

Hi,

we use Office 2010 and 2013. Now i created (c#) a outlook addin which creats databas entries in our business-software. The Databas ID i want to save in the emailItem. Is it ok to use the BillingInformation for this issue? Or is it better to create a on property?

If i forward the mail this information shouldn't be lost. The receiver must use this informationen!

Thanks for helping me!

best Regards

In a VSTO 4.0 Excel Addin project in VS2012.

For a comment in a range for 1 cell.

I am reading the  Font.Subscript property  for a individual character in the TextFrame of the Comment.Shape

But this property returns no value, instead it returns DBNULL (NULL). The property type for (Font.Subscript) specified in Interop.Excel is Object.

The property Font.Bold returns in the contrary a correct value of TRUE or FALSE.

used VSTO code :

Dim CellRange as Excel.Range = Globals.ThisAddin.Application.ActiveCell
Dim FontItem as Excel.Font
Dim Subscript As System.Object

FontItem = CellRange.Comment.Shape.TextFrame.Characters(2, 1).Font
Subscript = FontItem.Subscript

In VBA their is no problem with the property Subscript  of the Font class

Via VBA, when I read the individual character in de comment shape textframe of a specified cell, then the Font.Subscript property returns a correct value for the character.font.subscript.

VBA code :

With Range("H6").Comment.Shape.TextFrame.Characters(2,1).Font
 .Bold = True
 .Subscript = True
End With

What is the solution to get a correct value for the Font.Subscript property of a individual character in a shape.Comment.TextFramein a VSTO application addin for Excel.

We are seeing a behavior in PowerPoint that causes custom task panes to be displayed on the wrong PowerPoint window. This behavior can be replicated by having two PowerPoint window open and Alt+Tabbing right after clicking a ribbon button that adds a custom taskpane. Alt+Tab sets the focus on the second PowerPoint application where the custom task pane appears, even if we passed in the DocumentWindow we Alt+Tabbed from to the CustomTaskPanes.Add() call. The DocumentWindow is retrieved through the ribbon button via IRibbonControl.Context as DocumentWindow.

We also tried passing in a DocumentWindow directly from the PowerPoint.Application.Windows[n] collection, resulting in the same behavior described above.

It seems that PowerPoint is relying on ActiveWindow internally rather than the DocumentWindow that was passed in the CustomTaskPanes.Add() call.

Word and Excel behave normally the custom task pane is displayed in the correct window after an Alt+Tab. We are passing in the respective objects to CustomTaskPanes.Add as described in http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb608620.aspx

Hi All,

I'm attempting to create an add-in for our company that modifies the body text based on selections.  I'm running into an issue where the text isn't sent all of the time.

My code is as follows (bodyText is a string that is dynamically generated based on other selections in the form):

            Outlook.AppointmentItem newAppointment;
            newAppointment = (Outlook.AppointmentItem)OutlookItem;
            string firstname = "";
            string lastname = "";
             //   Outlook.Account acc = Globals.ThisAddIn.Application.ActiveExplorer().Session.Accounts[0];
                firstname = ((dynamic)Globals.ThisAddIn.Application.ActiveExplorer().Session).CurrentUser.Name;
                if (firstname.Contains(' '))
                {
                    lastname = firstname.Split(' ')[1];
                    firstname  = firstname.Split(' ')[0];
                }
            string bodyText = ""; // this is a dynamically formatted string.
            newAppointment.RTFBody = Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(bodyText);
            newAppointment.Save();
            newAppointment.Close(Outlook.OlInspectorClose.olSave);
            //send to all attendees
            newAppointment.ForceUpdateToAllAttendees = true;
            newAppointment.Send();

Does anyone see any issues with the above?

My symptoms are:

   User sometimes doesn't see the text when creating a meeting (what is the difference between a meeting and appointment and how do I handle that?)

   This works fine on a Windows XP SP 3 or Windows 7 32 bit machine . . . as soon as we go to x64 on Windows 7 the text won't populate unless the appointment already exists.  (EG: create a blank appointment, save it, then do this, works fine.)

Any suggestions greatly appreciated, thanks in advance.

Hi

My system crashed the other day and I can no longer run an addin I created for excel 2013.  The addin was created in VS studio 2012 targeting net 4.5. I have already tried reinstalling/repairing the following:

Microsoft Office Developer Tools for Visual Studio 2012 ENU - repaired

Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 Tools for Office Runtime (x64) - repaired

Net 4.5 - reinstalled

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Following is the error message after setting VSTO_SUPPRESSDISPLAYALERTS = 0 in the system environment variables.
