Open the app. Lastly, we will need to add some initial code to our main form. Open Form1. Optionally, a separate class could be created to utilize the log object. I have included this method in the example source code. This would enable the object to be used globally throughout each form in the application code. Now that we have our project built, we are ready to export it as a new Project Template. Click "Next" on the Export Template wizard, and fill out the necessary boxes as needed.
For more information, see Office projects in the Visual Studio environment and Events in Office projects. The Office development tools are included with certain editions of Visual Studio. For more information, see Configure a computer to develop Office solutions. The Office node in the New Project dialog box provides the following project templates to get you started creating document-level customizations for Word and Excel:.
The Word Document and Excel Workbook project templates provide code to get you started creating a solution that is based on a specific document or workbook. In these types of solutions, your code runs only when the associated document is open in Word or Excel. However, the Word Template and Excel Template project templates makes it easy for users to create new local document or workbook copies of the customized template in your solution.
The features in your solution are available from the new document that the user creates from the template. The assembly is not called if the template is loaded from the Startup directory of Word.

Item templates can be handy whenever we want to add some custom file types to a project. In the case of both the Project templates and the Item templates, there is a specific folder structure, which enables you to pick the appropriate location of your item. You can choose the CSharp folder if you want your item or project template is to be displayed in the C topic of the popup window or VisualBasic folder for Visual Basic. Thus you can easily categorize templates during installation.
In the follow section I will show you how to make templates using a Wizard, and later I will use a manual approach to build a custom template and also to install it. Open an existing project containing most of the code required when you open the Template for a new Project.
Add Parameters to the files which will be replaced whenever a new project is made from the template. Parameters are of two types:. A complete description of these parameters can be found on the Microsoft web site. The above code uses several parameters in the template which will be replaced in the actual project. The actual class will look like this:. Custom Parameters: You can also define your own custom parameters by directly editing the metadata file.
After creating the application that will be used for templates, add the dll s and namespace s to the desired files. If I get the template, can I compile it on the Express edition? Does anyone have it? Where can I find it?
