>>We talked at one time about updating the book, but it didn't make economic sense to do so. I've written a few articles covering stuff that wasn't in the book, and did a conference session a few years back that included talking about issues around more recent versions of Office. You'll find the articles at http://www.tomorrowssolutionsllc.com/publications/articles, and the white paper for the session at http://www.tomorrowssolutionsllc.com/Conference%20Sessions/Office%20Automation%20Tips%20Tricks%20and%20Traps.pdf
