See how Visual Studio 2005 Tools for the Office System provides the complete power of the .NET Framework to Microsoft Excel 2003 and Microsoft Word 2003 providing a familiar coding experience, the use of managed controls and the natural ability to consume and expose Web services directly from Word and Excel documents and templates. You will also experience first hand how advances in Smart Client programming make it easier to design, deploy, and automatically update applications using ClickOnce.
