Word Automation through C# is all about programmatically generating the Word Document using C# code. Working on Word is considered to be straightforward, but doing the same programmatically gets a little intricate. Word automation almost completely involves working with objects and reference types. Almost all of the tasks which we perform on word 2003 can be done programmatically using C# or VB. Tasks like Inserting Table of Contents, Linking documents, Mail Merge, Inserting Documents, Embedding...

This article describes how to add variable replacements into your snippet generated code, or even a simple copy and paste function. The first thing we need to do is trap the code changed event from the IDE, we need to have a mechanism that allows us to look up a value to replace. Now we need to replace the inserted code. This will also allow us to use the functionality as an inline variable replacement, like word uses auto-correct. Secondly, we need this mechanism to work in conjunction with the...

This step-by-step article describes how to handle Excel events from an Automation client that is developed with Visual C# .NET. Visual C# .NET uses delegates to handle Component Object Model (COM) events. Delegates are a new concept in Visual Studio .NET. In the case of COM events, a delegate listens for events from the COM server, and forwards them to a Visual C# function....

You may want to display, or embed, an Office document directly on a Visual C# .NET Form. Visual C# .NET does not provide an OLE control that allows you to embed an Office document on a form. If you want to embed an existing document and open it as an in-place ActiveX document object within a Visual C# .NET form, a potential solution for you is to use the Microsoft WebBrowser control. This article demonstrates how to browse to an existing Office document and display it inside a Visual C# .NET for...

Though it has only been around for a relatively short amount of time, Windows PowerShellTM is already one of my favorite tools. I recently discovered that Windows PowerShell has all the features you need for creating a tiny library that will enable you to write ultralightweight UI automation.
In this month's column, I will show you how to create a small collection of custom Windows PowerShell cmdlets that perform Windows® UI automation tasks. These include obtaining handles to application...

Essentially, home automation is the ability to control devices around your house from your PC. For example, if you go away on holidays, you could schedule your PC to rotate your lights on a normal schedule. Turn them all off during the day, then back on in the evening and finally all off again at night. This of course would give the impression that you are at home and potentially thwart robbery attempts. Other examples would be having the coffee pot and toaster automatically begin at 7:00 am and...

You’ll have come across many situations in which you will need to generate a random password comprised of random alphanumeric and punctuation characters. While there are many tools out there that will do this for you, why not write a class in C# that will do it for you, especially when C# makes it so simple and easy....

The .NET Framework provides a surprising new way to quickly and easily create user interface test automation. By using objects in the System.Reflection and System.Threading namespaces, you can write automated tests in minutes instead of hours. This article walks you through the building of a typical Windows-based application that will be used as the test subject. The author then runs through the creation of a C#-based test tool that simulates clicking the test app's UI controls and checks the ap...

Manual user interface testing is one of the most fundamental types of software testing and it's the kind of testing that most software engineers first experience. Paradoxically, automated user interface tests are probably the most technically challenging kind of test to write. The Microsoft® .NET environment provides you with many ways to write automated user interface test automation. One common and useful approach is recording keystrokes, mouse movements, and clicks and then playing them back ...

As Web applications have become more complex, testing them has become more important. There are many testing techniques available to you. For example, in the April 2005 issue of MSDN®Magazine, I describe a simple JScript®-based system that can test a Web app through its UI by using the Internet Explorer Document Object Model. That technique is effective but has several limitations. Some of my colleagues asked me if it was possible to use the .NET Framework to write more powerful but still lightw...

There are several techniques you can use to test the user interface of a Windows® application. For example, you can use System.Reflection classes to test Microsoft® .NET Framework applications or you can test both .NET and native applications by calling Win32® API functions such as FindWindow—either with unmanaged C++ or with C# or Visual Basic® by using the P/Invoke mechanism....
