Hi everyone
I have a word usercontrol hosted in an HTML page. When the page loads with Word 2003 on the client machine - unnecessary menu items are disabled with the commandbar menus. I am now trying to get the same effect if the client has word 2007 loaded.
from reading around - it appears I need an addIn class which implements -- public string GetCustomUI(string ribbonId) -- which will then load a custom xml template file. This is up and working if everything is on one machine - lovely! But I can't see how when I go to using a remote client - how the usercontrol (downloaded from the object tag on the page) knows about the addin. Of course I could deploy the add-in on each client machine be then this defeats the point of the web page. I might as well have written a windows app (and arguably I should have done - technical specifications out of my control unfortunately).
What am I missing. Is there a way to tell the user control about the addin? Or is the another way entirely. It's a bit frustrating as the command bars with word 2003 worked fine.
Any and all help greatly appreciated
Regards
Tim B
