Feature tour
One project for all Office versions and applications
Add-in Express has an optimized version-neutral core that is written in C# and is based on the .Net framework, COM interoperability and low-level Windows API. This makes it easy for you to create one Visual Studio project that supports all versions (2000, XP, 2003, 2007 and 2010) and editions (Student, Home, Professional, etc.) of Microsoft Office and target multiple applications in the Microsoft Office suite (Outlook, Word, Excel, PowerPoint etc.)
100% compatibility from version to version
You are not limited in your choice of Visual Studio versions (2005, 2008 and 2010) or editions (Express, Profession, Ultimate) when developing with Add-in Express. For example, using Visual Studio 2005 Standard, you can build add-in for Office 2000 to 2010.
We have always complied with the simple rule that a project built on a prior version of Add-in Express must be 100% compatible with the next version of Add-in Express. This means that after installing the latest version of Add-in Express, you simply open your project and rebuild it That's it!
