Microsoft Office 2000 Developer contents
Microsoft Office 2000 Developer (MOD) provides advanced tools that
developers can use to create and distribute custom applications.
The MOD includes the following:
Microsoft Office Premium CD-ROM
Office Developer Tools CD-ROM
A royalty-free distribution license and tools (including the Microsoft Graph
run-time application) that allow you to distribute copies of your custom
Microsoft Access applications (.mdb only) to all your users.
Replication Manager, which schedules updates among replicas, determines
which objects in the database are replicated, and manages multiple replica
sets at one time. By using Replication Manager, you can see a visual display
of all the replicas in a set.
Microsoft Visual SourceSafe 6.0 (including the Visual SourceSafe Add-in for
Access and the Visual SourceSafe Visual Basic Editor Add-in), which supports
multideveloper application development.
ActiveX controls that you can use to add versatility to your applications
and duplicate Microsoft Windows 95 functionality, including controls for
Internet applications and controls to connect Microsoft Outlook messaging
with data and other Office applications.
Updated Windows API Viewer with enhanced performance. The Windows API Viewer
contains declarations and constants used with the Windows 95 application
programming interface (API). You can copy and paste these declarations and
constants into your Visual Basic modules.
The Data Environment, a user interface for easily connecting solutions to
external databases.
The Make Add-in feature, which you can use to create an add-in directly from
the Visual Basic Editor for a specific Visual Basic Editor host.
The Package and Deploy Wizard, which you can use to deliver Office
programmable solutions for any Visual Basic for Applications 6.0 host to
disk, network, and the Web.
The Code Librarian, a tool for browsing existing source files for code
snippets. You can search text, view descriptions and comment headers, and
insert the text into your current project.
The HTML Help Workshop Software Development Kit (SDK), with which you can
create Help topics similar to those in Microsoft Office 2000. The SDK
includes the HTML Help Workshop and the run-time version to distribute to
your users.
The Agent SDK, which provides programmatic control over Office Assistants
you create.
Microsoft Office WebBot Components, with which you create applets embedded
inside Office 2000 documents. With the user interface these applets provide,
users don't need to author script and Visual Basic for Applications code to
take advantage of DHTML features. WebBots are written in Microsoft Script
Editor.
Microsoft Developer Network (MSDN), Office 2000 edition. The entire MSDN
library is included, as well as a special default subset of Office and
Visual Basic for Applications programming commands .
