A day and a half behind schedule, here’s a long (10mins!) video of how to write and “deploy” as VSTO addin for Excel 2007. It was, to be honest, a nightmare to do, as my PC is about 100 years old! I promise that as soon as the funds allow I will get a new one – at least now I have a legitimate reason for the spend!
The sound and the image get out of sync about half way through, for which I apologise, but I’ve already spent enough time on it, and people should be able to keep up, there’s nothing to difficult about it. Editing in Widows Movie Maker is rubbish!
Anyway, here it is!
MIE Sample VSTO Timer Addin.zip project to go with it, should anyone be interested
I’m glad that’s done!!!
Note to self, don’t do end to end videos!
Very good video…it helps a lot. Thanks !!
thanks Issac!

Good video. It was a very helpful primer on getting started with VSTO. Thanks.
Thanks Jason, glad it helped, I should re do it so the quaility is better, but it’s good to see people using it ;-)
Thanks for the feedback.

Ross this is just what I was looking for!
Dim XL As Excel.Application = Globals.ThisAddIn.Application
that’s the killer line…with that reference I can code like I do in VBA.
