Building Office add-ins in C#

Thanks for the reply Kovan, you may be right. Please note that I have the standard edition of Visual C#, at an educational price :-). This edition is similar to Pro, but without Visual C++ and Visual Basic. The IDE is the Visual Studio IDE, and I have access to all libraries such as IDTExtensibility2, Office etc. What I don't have is most of the wizards that come with the Pro or better editions. As an example, consider this: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;302901[^] This article explains how to build an Office add-in, however it uses the wizard to generate the project files and to setup the environment. I am preety sure that if I had a look at these files and settings, I could create my own add-in template without the wizard. This would be more time consuming, but it would save me money (I'm on a student's budget) from having to buy the Professional edition. I hope this describes my problem better. Thanks again, Peter

I dont think you can build such thing with the educational version. educational was only meant for learning the basics
