Early this year I reviewed a new book on VSTO development for beginning and intermediate Office developers and only a week or so the book VSTO 3.0 for Office 2007 Programming was released to print and published.
The book is written by Vivek Thangaswamy who besides writing is also awarded Microsoft MVP in the expertise area of SharePoint Server, close related to the topic of his new book.
The book explains how to start developing Office 2007 applications using VSTO 3.0. With step by step examples he shows you how to create applications for InfoPath, Word, Excel, Outlook and PowerPoint. The book will help beginners and intermediate developers to create their first Office applications.
To give you an impression of his writings I now have a sample chapter for you available to download here. By clicking on the title of the sample chapter below you can open it in Adobe Reader or save it somewhere for reading later on.
Enjoy!
Update:
The publisher (Packt) offers some combi deals you can check out (want only the pdf? Or both? It's available!)
