There appears to be little documentation on the net for the most simple part of creating VSTO Add-ins.
Once you have created your ribbon and your controls on it, you may want to use them to launch your app’s forms. This really is simple, looking at the snippet below, presuming you have a command button named cmdLaunch on your ribbon:
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 |
Imports Microsoft.Office.Tools.Ribbon Public Class Ribbon1 Private Sub cmdLaunch_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As Microsoft.Office.Tools.Ribbon.RibbonControlEventArgs) Handles cmdLaunch.Click Dim dlg As myForm = New myForm dlg.ShowDialog() End Sub End Class |
This will launch your form in ‘Dialog’ mode
