Microsoft.Office Components?

[Calculator]

I'm trying to compile some source code that uses microsoft office task panes and to work with some speech recognition.

Code is from the following article

Enabling Speech Recognition in Microsoft Word 2007 with Visual Studio 2008 - http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd148511.aspx

The code for download is here
http://code.msdn.microsoft.com/SpeechRecoWordAddin

When I compile the project I get errors

I don't really know what it means, it's errors on operations performed by

Friend WithEvents VstoSmartTags As Microsoft.Office.Tools.SmartTagCollection

The MSDN says that it has all these methods http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/libr...n_methods.aspx

So I don't really know, any advice?

It has this, first...

A custom task pane for Microsoft Word 2007 with VSTO and Visual Basic 2008 which allows interaction with Windows Vista's speech

VSTO is Visual Studio Tools for Office

I don't really understand, I read that VSTO is it's own IDE or something but I can't tell how I get it? I mean, most uninformative page ever is the homepage -- http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/vsto/default.aspx

It's built into some versions of Visual Studio. I guess if you don't have it, you can't use it. http://visualbasic.about.com/b/2006/...sual-basic.htm

There is the new version that you can probably download a trial version of
