OK this is a radical idea from listening to @mkristensen talk about VS.NET tooling and how they are looking at supporting Swagger 2.0 to provide code generation for RESTful APIs in VSNET.

http://devchat.tv/adventures-in-angular/019-aia-microsoft-tooling-with-mads-kristensen

I looked up Swagger and their online documentation editor, and browser and here's an example

http://petstore.swagger.wordnik.com/#!/pet/updatePet

Which is surprisingly similar to Office 365's

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/dn600182(v=office.15).aspx

I think Office 365 documentation on MSDN should still be the primary resource. Any future tie in to API-Sandbox would be awesome.

But if VSNET starts to support auto-codegen (like the old days with WSDL/Soap Services) from Swagger documentation, then I can also see having Swagger documentation is extremely useful.

Again, please refer to example for the idea and the podcast about what VSNET is thinking.

I have uploaded the code to one drive...here is the link

Steps to reproduce:

1.Click the "Create content control button" to create the Text Binding.

2.Create table (3 cloumns and 5 rows) Inside the content control and then "Create Table Binding".the table bindings will be created for the table that you selected .

3.Click the button "GetandSetXML for ContentControl" to get and set the XML.

4.Once after the this, you can notice the Bindings for the table is getting lost.

Do let me know if u need more understanding on this scenario

please see the question I rased in the forum

Excerpt from Yammer conversation:

Hi groupmembers!

We're developing a serious Healthcare App for Windows (8) Store. Aiming on mobile.

What we have seen in demo's is a lot of Mail, Contacts and SharePoint. What we are looking for is a way to tap the power of Word and Excel for our Store App.

Please come up with a good suggestion!

What I mean is Word/Excel API's that works for Store/Mobile App development. No more, but certainly no less than that :-)

Jeremy Thake (Microsoft)

What do you mean by "Word API". When you say "Word API" do you mean Word Automated Services API?

Yes Jeremy Thake (Microsoft), when I say mobile app, I mean the Windows (and later on Android and iTunes ) Store app's.

There is where I'm looking for Word and Excel integration.

Do I understand correctly that there's no support for that? Or do I have to look for another approach?

What we are trying to achieve is to have the functionality of Word and Excel in our Store App. Instead of having to code half a texteditor ourselves, we would like to unleash Word for that.

Give the user the rich Word experience and grab the text that they have entered, and save it in an AzureSQL database - for privacy and security reasons (Healthcare App).

Excel would be used as the tool to present management info (graphs) and give users the ability to dive into the data via Excel.

Hopefully I am clear enough ?

Perhaps in other words: Word and Excel as SAAS??

Jeremy Thake (Microsoft) answering to Peter Klein

Yes I understand now. This capability is not available, please submit this to our uservoice as a request to get engineering a attention on this.

I'm developing an app for Excel 2013. I have a binding, and I have an event tied to when text is updated in the binder. Text being updated fires the event which updates my sidebar app. This update causes my app to update a hidden column of 1s and 0s to control my conditional formatting, to highlight and unhighlight rows.

The problem that I'm running into is that I have lost the ability to use the Undo command. When I update a cell, the app instantly updates the conditional highlighting control column. I then can't update the change that I made in the first place.

I'd like to have Excel ignore the change that my app made, in terms of the Undo/Redo queue.
