<h2><a name="whatare"></a>What are the Office XP Primary Interop Assemblies?</h2>
|
||
<p>Component Object Model (COM) <i>interop assemblies</i> allow <i>unmanaged</i> (COM) code to be
|
||
called from <i>managed</i> (.NET) code by using the Microsoft .NET Framework and the
|
||
common language runtime. COM interop assemblies allow managed applications to
|
||
bind to unmanaged types at compile time and provide information to the common
|
||
language runtime about how the unmanaged types should be marshaled at run time.
|
||
</p>
|
||
<p>While any number of COM interop assemblies may exist for a given type library, only one COM interop
|
||
assembly is designated as the <i>primary interop assembly</i> (PIA). The PIA contains
|
||
the official description of the unmanaged types as defined by the publisher of
|
||
those unmanaged types. The PIA usually also contains certain customizations that
|
||
make the types easier to use from managed code. The PIA is always digitally
|
||
signed by the publisher of the original unmanaged type.</p>
|
||
<p>Microsoft has created several PIAs that contain the official description of
|
||
commonly-used Microsoft Office XP type libaries for products such as Microsoft
|
||
Access 2002, Microsoft Excel 2002, Microsoft FrontPage® 2002, and so on. This
|
||
group of PIAs are known as the <i>Office XP Primary Interop Assemblies</i>.
|
||
Microsoft has customized the Office XP PIAs to make them easier for managed code
|
||
to interoperate with the Office XP COM type libraries. Any Office XP COM interop assembly that is not provided as part of the Office XP PIAs, or any
|
||
Office XP COM interop assembly that is generated by Microsoft Visual Studio®
|
||
.NET at design time, should be considered unofficial and their use should be
|
||
avoided.</p>
|
||
|
||
<h2><a name="included"></a>Included assemblies</h2>
|
||
|
||
<p>The Office XP PIAs include the following assemblies:</p>
|
||
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>adodb.dll </li>
|
||
<li>dao.dll</li>
|
||
<li>Microsoft.Office.Interop.Access.dll </li>

|
||
|
||
<h2><a name="systemreq"></a>System requirements</h2>
|
||
<p>Minimum system requirements for the Office XP Primary Interop Assemblies include
|
||
Microsoft Visual Studio® .NET for solution developers, or the Microsoft .NET
|
||
Framework Redistributable for end users. For more information on these products,
|
||
including additional system requirements, go to the Microsoft Developer Network
|
||
(MSDN) Web site at <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio">http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio</a> or
|
||
<a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/net">http://msdn.microsoft.com/net</a>.</p>
|
||
|
||
<h2><a name="install"></a>Installing and uninstalling the Office XP PIAs</h2>
|
||
<p>The Office XP PIAs are included as part of a self-extracting executable (.exe)
|
||
file. To extract the Office XP PIAs to a file directory folder of your choice,
|
||
simply open the .exe file. Once you have extracted all of the Office XP PIAs
|
||
from the .exe file, you must individually install each of the Office XP PIAs
|
||
that you want to reference from Microsoft Visual Studio .NET. To install the
|
||
Office XP PIAs, you must individually install a copy of each Office XP PIA in the
|
||
computer's global assembly cache (GAC), and then register all of that Office XP PIA's declared types,
|
||
or you can run a batch file that automatically installs all of the Office XP
|
||
PIAs in the computer's GAC and registers all of the Office XP PIAs' declared
|
||
types.</p>
|
||
<p><b>To install the Office XP PIAs</b></p>
|
||
<ol>
|
||
<li>On a computer with Visual Studio .NET installed and the extracted Office XP
|
||
PIAs, on the <b>Start</b> menu, click <b>(All) Programs</b>, point to <b>Microsoft Visual Studio
|
||
.NET</b>, point to <b>Visual Studio .NET Tools</b>, and click <b>Visual Studio .NET Command
|
||
Prompt</b>. The <b>Visual Studio .NET Command Prompt</b> window appears. This
|
||
facilitates the use of the .NET Framework SDK tools.</li>
|
||
<li>In the <b>Visual Studio .NET Command Prompt</b> window, use the <code>cd</code>
|
||
(change directory)
|
||
command to change to the file directory in which the Office XP PIAs were
|
||
extracted. For exampLe, if you extracted the Office XP PIAs to a C:\Office XP
|
||
PIAs\ folder, type <code><pre>cd C:\Office XP PIAs\</pre></code>and press ENTER.</li>
|
||
<li>To install all of the Office XP PIAs at once, type
|
||
<code><pre>register.bat</pre></code>and press ENTER. <p>You can skip steps 4 through 6 of this procedure, as all of the Office XP PIAs are automatically
|
||
installed in the computer's GAC and all of the Office XP PIAs' declared types
|
||
are registered. <br></li>
|
||
<li>If you want to install an individual Office XP PIA, type<code><pre>gacutil -i assembly_file_name</code></pre>and press ENTER, where <code>assembly_file_name</code> is the file name of
|
||
the Office XP PIA. <br>
|
||
<br>
|
||
For example, assuming that you are in the file directory in which the Office XP PIAs
|
||
were extracted, and you want to install the Microsoft Word
|
||
2002 PIA only, type <code><pre>gacutil -i Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.dll</pre></code>
|
||
and press ENTER. </li>
|
||
<li>Next, in the <b>Visual Studio .NET Command Prompt </b>window, type the
|
||
<code>regedit /s</code> command and the name
|
||
of the Office XP PIA file name along with a .reg file extension. For example, if
|
||
the Office XP PIA file name is Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.dll, and you are in
|
||
the file directory in which the Office XP PIAs were extracted, type <code><pre>regedit /s Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.dll.reg</pre></code>
|
||
and press ENTER. </li>
|
||
<li>Repeat steps 4 and 5 above for all of the Office XP PIAs on which your
|
||
application depends, as described in the following table:</li></ol>

<p><b>Note</b> Failure to follow the above steps will cause

|

</p>
|
||
<p><b>To uninstall the Office XP PIAs</b><ol>
|
||
<li>On a computer with Visual Studio .NET installed and the extracted Office XP
|
||
PIAs, on the <b>Start</b> menu, click <b>(All) Programs</b>, point to <b>Microsoft Visual Studio
|
||
.NET</b>, point to <b>Visual Studio .NET Tools</b>, and click <b>Visual Studio .NET Command
|
||
Prompt</b>. The <b>Visual Studio .NET Command Prompt</b> window appears. This
|
||
facilitates the use of the .NET Framework SDK tools.</li>
|
||
<li>For each Office XP PIA that you want to uninstall, type<code><pre>gacutil /u assembly_display_name</pre></code>
|
||
and press ENTER.
|
||
In this case, <code>assembly_display_name</code> is the PIA's global assembly cache display
|
||
name. For example, to uninstall the Word 2002 PIA from the GAC, type<code><pre>gacutil /u Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word</pre></code>and press ENTER.
|
||
<br>
|
||
<br>
|
||
Note that this step does not remove any registry entries. If you want to remove
|
||
registry entries associated with the assembly, you must do so manually by using
|
||
a program such as the Registry Editor.</li></ol><p><b>Caution</b> Modifying the
|
||
Microsoft Windows<77> Registry in any manner always carries some degree of risk. Incorrect modification
|
||
can cause serious problems that may require you to reinstall your operating
|
||
system. It is a good practice to always back up a computer's registry first
|
||
before modifying it. If you are running Microsoft Windows NT<4E> or Microsoft
|
||
Windows 2000, you should also update your Emergency Repair Disk (ERD).</p><h2><a name="view"></a>Viewing the installed assemblies</h2>
|
||
<p>To view the installed assemblies in the global assembly cache (GAC):</p>
|
||
<ol>
|
||
<li>Open Microsoft Windows Explorer.</li>
|
||
<li>Open the system root folder (for example, C:\WINDOWS\ or C:\WINNT\).</li>
|
||
<li>Open the \assembly folder.</li></ol>
|
||
<p>- OR -</p>
|
||
<ol>
|
||
<li>On the <b>Start</b> menu, click <b>Run</b>. The <b>Run</b> dialog box appears.</li>
|
||
<li>Type <b>C:\WINDOWS\assembly\</b> or <b>C:\WINNT\assembly\</b> (depending on the name of
|
||
your computer's system root folder) in the <b>Open</b> box.</li>
|
||
<li>Click <b>OK</b>.</li></ol>
|
||
<p>The Office XP PIAs are displayed along with all of the other assemblies
|
||
registered in the GAC.</p>
|
||
|
||
<h2><a name="reference"></a>Referencing the Office XP PIAs</h2>
|
||
<p>Unlike standard COM interop assemblies, you cannot browse to a PIA and set a
|
||
reference to it as you would with other assemblies in the Microsoft Visual
|
||
Studio .NET IDE. Instead, you set a reference to an existing COM type library;
|
||
if a PIA exists in the GAC for that COM type library, the PIA will be silently
|
||
referenced instead. To demonstrate this behavior, perform the following steps on
|
||
a computer with Visual Studio .NET and the Microsoft Word 2002 PIA installed:</p>
|
||
<ol>
|
||
<li>Start Visual Studio .NET.</li>
|
||
<li>On the <b>File</b> menu, point to <b>New</b>, and click <b>Project</b>. The
|
||
<b>New Project</b> dialog box
|
||
appears.</li>
|
||
<li>Click the <b>Visual Basic Projects</b> folder in the <b>Project Types</b> pane.</li>
|
||
<li>Click <b>Console Application</b> in the <b>Templates</b> pane.</li>

<li>Click <b>OK</b> to create the solution.</li>
|
||
<li>On the <b>Project</b> menu, click <b>Add Reference</b>. The <b>Add Reference</b> dialog box
|
||
appears.</li>
|
||
<li>Click the <b>COM</b> tab.</li>
|
||
<li>Select the <b>Microsoft Word 10.0 Object Library</b> entry in the list of COM type

<li>In the <b>Solution Explorer</b> window, in the <b>References</b> folder, click the
|
||
<b>Word</b>
|
||
reference.</li>
|
||
<li>In the <b>Properties</b> window, notice that the <b>Path</b> property is set to
|
||
a string similar to <b>C:\WINDOWS\assembly\GAC\Word\...\Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.dll</b>. This indicates that the
|
||
Word PIA is being used instead of forcing Visual Studio .NET to create its own
|
||
COM interop assembly in your project's location.</li></ol>
|
||
<p>One you have successfully set a reference to a specific Office XP PIA, you can
|
||
use it just like any other COM interop assembly. For example, with the Microsoft
|
||
PowerPoint 2002 PIA, you can type
|
||
<code>Imports Microsoft.Office.Interop.PowerPoint</code> at the beginning of a Microsoft Visual
|
||
Basic® .NET code module
|
||
to keep from typing <code>Microsoft.Office.Interop.PowerPoint</code> every time you want to
|
||
reference a specific PowerPoint object or member.
|
||
<p>For a list of all of the available namespaces, objects, and members associated
|
||
with a specific Office XP PIA, go to the Visual Studio .NET Object Browser (on
|
||
the <b>View</b> menu, point to <b>Other Windows</b>, and click <b>Object Browser</b>) after you have
|
||
successfully set a reference to the Office XP PIA.</p>
|
||
|
||
<h2><a name="distribute"></a>Distributing solutions that rely on the Office XP PIAs</h2>
|
||
<p>You have several options to distribute a Visual Studio .NET solution that relies
|
||
on one or more of the Office XP PIAs:</p>
|
||
<ol>
|
||
<li>Have the end user of your solution manually install the required Office XP
|
||
PIAs on their computer before running your solution. This option is only
|
||
recommended for technically advanced end users. See the <a href="#install">Installing
|
||
and uninstalling the Office XP PIAs</a> section above for details.</li>
|
||
<li>Place the required Office XP PIAs in the same directory as your solution and
|
||
distribute your solution and the Office XP PIAs as a single unit. This option is
|
||
only recommended for simple solution deployments, such as copying solutions from
|
||
one file directory folder to another across a computer network. The main
|
||
disadvantage with this option is that multiple copies of the same Office XP PIAs
|
||
may be installed on end users' computers, which reduces these computers' available hard
|
||
disk space.</li>
|
||
<li>Install the required Office XP PIAs on end users' computers through the use
|
||
of a Visual Studio .NET Setup project. This option is recommended for most
|
||
deployments as it automatically installs and registers the required Office XP
|
||
PIAs, as well as reduces the number of duplicate Office XP PIAs on end users'
|
||
computers.</li></ol>
|
||
<p>These first and second options are straightforward and are self-explanatory. To
|
||
demonstrate and practice the third option (using a Visual Studio .NET Setup
|
||
project), you will need two computers, one computer with Office XP, Visual Studio .NET, and
|
||
the Office XP PIAs installed, and another computer with Office XP and the Visual Studio .NET or
|
||
the Microsoft .NET Framework Redistributable installed but the Office XP PIAs
|
||
are not installed.</p>
|
||
<p>On the computer with Visual Studio .NET and the Office XP PIAs installed:</p>
|
||
First, create the executable project.
|
||
<ol>
|
||
<li>Create a Visual Basic .NET console application solution as described in steps
|
||
1 through 12 of the <a href="#reference">Referencing the Office XP PIAs</a> section above.</li>
|
||
<li>Add the following code to the <code>Module1.vb</code> file:<br>
|
||
<code><pre>Module Module1
|
||
|
||
Sub Main()
|
||
|
||
' Purpose: Tests the Microsoft Word 2002 primary
|
||
' interop assembly (PIA).
|
||
|
||
Dim wdApp As New Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.Application()
|
||
|
||
Console.WriteLine("The version of Microsoft Word installed " & _
|
||
"on this computer is " & wdApp.Version & ".")
|
||
Console.ReadLine()
|
||
|
||
End Sub
|
||
|
||
End Module</pre></code></li>
|
||
|
||
</ol>
|
||
|

|
||
</ol>
|
||
|
||
<p>Next, add the Word 2002 PIA to the <b>Global Assembly Cache</b> output folder. </p>
|
||
<ol>
|
||
<li>In the <b>Solution Explorer</b> window, right-click <b>OfficeXPPIATestSetup</b>, point to
