MS Office Forum / Word / Programming / April 2007Writing automation clients for versions of Office including 2007
I have code that binds to the PIA for Word 2000 that I need to keep running. One of my clients wants to upgrade to 2007 and I would like to make the same code work for both. All of the kb articles I have read imply this should be OK as long as I use the earlier references, but they only discuss the versions from 97 to 2003. When I try to use the code with 2007 I get IEHExceptions. Am I missing some documentation? or can anyone advise me whether what I want to do is possible (and give me a clues as to how to do it!) Thanks > IEHExceptions. Auch, Interface implementation problems (the PIA's) ... I'm afraid y'll have to wait for fully Office 2007 supported PIA's for this. -- Krgrds, Perry System: Vista/Office Ultimate VS2005/VSTO2005 SE >I have code that binds to the PIA for Word 2000 that I need to keep >running.

I don't suppose anyone has any idea when they will be available, or why they should be seen as an unncessary extra for delivery whenever? I seem to recollect something about "developers, developers, developers"... Sorry couldn't resist that. Mark > > IEHExceptions. > Auch, Interface implementation problems (the PIA's) ... [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > Vista/Office Ultimate > VS2005/VSTO2005 SE Having thought for a few seconds longer, the PIA for 2007 might solve the IEHExceptions, but I shouldn't be getting them if 2007 continued the consistency with earlier versions. The PIA won't let me use the same executable for multiple versions of Word, I will need to recompile and keep separate codebases for 2007 and earlier. I assume that the v-tables have been changed in 2007. I seem to have to do a lot of assuming, in the apparent absence of any documentation. KB 245115 talks about having to work around "compatibility problems between multiple versions of a component that has improperly modified or adapted its interface between versions" which sounds like what I have here. mmm... "improperly"... Mark > Thank you, Perry. When I opened VS it said it was updating my references, so > I had assumed, obviously wrongly, that it was fixing the PIAs.
