Visual Studio Tools for Office: Excel Object Model Sample 1.0.0

The Visual Studio Tools for Office (VSTO) is a set of tools that allows developers to create custom applications for Microsoft Office. One of the most popular VSTO applications is the Excel Object Model, which can be used to create powerful data analysis tools inside Excel.

With the Excel Object Model, developers can automate repetitive tasks and create custom functions that extend Excel's capabilities. The model provides a rich set of classes, methods, and properties that allow access to nearly every aspect of Excel's functionality, including worksheets, charts, pivot tables, and more.

This sample project demonstrates how to use the Excel Object Model to create a simple application that generates a report based on data in an Excel worksheet. The project includes examples for:

- Creating a new workbook and worksheet
- Adding data to the worksheet
- Formatting cells and ranges
- Using built-in functions to calculate totals and averages
- Creating charts and graphs based on the data

The code is written in C# using Visual Studio 2019, and includes comments throughout to help developers understand what's happening at each step. With this sample project as a starting point, developers can begin building their own custom Excel applications using the powerful features of the Excel Object Model.
