Resources for Learning to Build Office Applications with Visual Studio 2008

by dboynton 3/25/2008 8:13:00 PM

I had the privilege of presenting Building Instantly Recognizable Applications with the Microsoft Office System at the Windows/Visual Studio/SQL Server 2008 launch in Kansas City, KS today. I had a great time and am grateful to the outstanding audience for your attention and excellent questions.

As I am a man of my word, here are the resource links from my slide deck for those of you wanting to learn more about how to start developing applications for Office:

Also, I had several requests after my talk for my slide deck, so I've made it available for download it here.

If you were at the talk today and have comments or questions, please feel free to email me to post a comment below. Enjoy the materials and thanks again for attending the launch event today!

Thanks for the presentation... I think more than a few people will be bummed to find out the standard edition of VS 2008 doesn't support the OBA features outlined in your presentation today. (True, the professional edition will...)

I really enjoyed your presentation.

Before I went to the launch I was really excited about the much needed updates for JavaScript and CSS support in VS 2008. But walking away from the launch I was much more excited about the possibilities of using the techniques that you demoed for us.

It opened up a lot of ideas for me, especially since the last few weeks I have been asked to import this from Excel or export that to Excel. As a fairly new developer I am always trying to expand my knowledge base and explore new avenues of software development that I haven't yet ventured. So your presentation was a nice eye opener for me and I will be able to put it to good use.

Kevin,

I'm really glad to hear that you got so much out of my talk. Honestly, it's hard to compete with the "sexiness" of the NextWeb stuff, but I tend to agree with you that the innovations in Visual Studio 2008 make developing for Microsoft Office not only easy, but an incredibly powerful alternative to proliferating one-off line of business application across your organization.

Please keep in touch and let me know how your work in developing for office progresses!

Thanks,
Denny
