Dear Group,

Is there any straightforward way to do the following two tasks using
VB.NET:

1. Overload the New/Save/Open/Print commands in Microsoft Word & Excel to
call functions in a seperate .dll ?

2. Write a data string to a hidden or custom field within Microsoft Word?

Has to apply to Office 2000 DOM and newer.

Many thanks in advance!
