Hi,

Can anyone tell me if visual studio tools for office enables one to do
anything they couldn't do using visal studio? If not, does it make things
easier?

It sounds like an intriguing product, and there's an awful lot of material
to read to find out what it does -- but from the little I've read it seems
like it may merely be bits of code that the developer modifies.

Right now, when I do work on Excel, I use the VB editor in Excel. This is
not nearly as good as the visual studio environment -- additionally, it seems
that classes don't work exactly the same way. I'd appreciate a better way to
do things.

What do you think?
