Hi

I have Windows XP with VS .net 2005 and just downloaded the vstools for
office
and the hands-on-lab VSTO-OutlookHandsOnLab.msi.

I double click the HandsOnLab.sln
and when I do, I get an error that the Bank project
"The application for the project c:\Program Files%/Microsoft/VSTO -
Outlook/Hands-on Labs\CS\Bank\ is not installed. Make sure the
application for the project type () is installed."

The reason I feel I need is is that I am trying to do lab1. I have
disabled labs 2-6 as mentionedin the readme and I cannot do these steps

====5.    Right-click HandsOnLab.Lab1 and then click Add Web Reference on
the shortcut menu.
6.    Select Web services in this solution.
7.    Select Service.
8.    Change the Web reference name to WebBanking.
9.    Click Add Reference
===

BEcause I don't see any web service.

Has anyone run the labs? Does anyone know how to get the bank project
to load?

thanks
Deevan

Sounds like you just downloaded the VSTO runtime (vstor.exe). But vstor.exe
isn't VSTO 2005--vstor.exe is just the runtime files for end-user computers,
not the design time tools for developers (which would include the project
types). VSTO 2005 is a full edition of Visual Studio, so to get the design
tools you have to buy the VSTO 2005 product or the Visual Studio Team System
products (the Office tools are not included with Visual Studio 2005
Professional or Standard). Also, VSTO is included in some MSDN
subscriptions. There's more information about VSTO here:

Hi Harry,

I wonder if there is a Hands-On lab available for this VSTO 2005 ? If so,
please let me know how to get it.

Thanks,
Eric.-

Yes, there are VSTO 2005 hands-on labs for Excel and Word on MSDN:
