Why I can't see Word template under my project types? AY 5/9/2007 4:53:00 PM Hi, I am new to VSTO development. I tried to use VSTO to host a word document inside my Visual Studio 2005 environment so that the user can add, edit their document before saving it to database. I followed the instructions to create a new project and add a Word template inside my IDE. However, I can't find word template under my project types? Can anyone tell me why I have that problem?

I do not see a "Word Document" or "Word Template" project. I have a "Word Add-In" project. I have: VS2005 Professional Ed. VSTO 2005 SE Office 2003 Professional Ed. Office 2003 Interop installed Thanks.

See this post: http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=1017896&SiteID=1 It says: VSTO 2005 SE is a free add-in for Visual Studio Professional and higher that only provides application-level add-in project templates. To use the document-level project templates (Excel workbooks, Word documents), you must purchase Visual Studio 2005 (this is a separate product from Visual Studio 2005 SE). The topic at http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa942839(VS.80).aspx provides a table that explains what features you can use in each product configuration. Since it looks like you're interested in customizing Office 2007, I thought it would be a good idea to stress that Visual Studio 2005 only provides document-level projects for Office 2003 applications. Although the compiled versions of these projects can be opened at run time in Office 2007, the development computer must have Office 2003 installed to create the solutions. Document-level projects for Office 2007 will be included in the next version of Visual Studio Tools for Office, code-named "Orcas". I hope this helps, McLean Schofield
