Re: I want to use C# instead of VBA
Developments on Office 12 now are subject to change and under NDA (Non
Disclosure). I would definitely advice you not to make any decisions on
where Office 12 is going right now.
Beta 2 will be 'public' and will give some more insight in what the final
version may look like. But even with Beta 2 you'll have to keep in mind that
features will be added, removed or removed before going final.
