Why?

There are a lot of complaints on not developing open source software on csharp (Stallman - Don't depend on mono).

Unfortunately it is obvious, that a lot of software has to be developed for Microsoft Office out there. As a programmer addicted to document management, I can't ignore that. So I was looking around searching to get my work done without beeing bundled with Visual Studio ...

NetOffice

The Manufactor describes the advantages of developing for MS Office with its product in the following way:


Why NetOffice?
The usual methods for accessing Microsoft Office. NET are the Primary Interop Assemblies and VSTO. Both access methods involve various disadvantages.
They are limited to a version, i.e. they only work with one or certain versions of Office
They cause problems while transferring or installation on other systems
They offer no protection mechanism in the management of COM proxies
NetOffice eliminates these disadvantages and remains a 1:1 wrapper that is syntactically and semantically identical to the interop assemblies.
