Hi (e-mail address removed),
Is it possible to have an app-level custom task pane in a Word add- in
and then also create and attach an actions pane for the document
generated from the add-in?
Yes... Although perhaps not in exactly the way you envision. Since
you're posting here, and not in a VSTO newsgroup, I'm assuming you're
asking the question outside the scope of what VSTO v.3 supports.
Therefore...
1. You need to have a SmartDocument dll in order to have a document
actions pane
2. Your Add-in would create a Word document, attach the XML schema that
matches the Smart Document dll, populate the document with the XML tags
and attach the Smart Document solution.
If you're talking about the VSTO functionality, then I recommend you
take this question to the VSTO forum

and be more explicit about the versions and technologies you have in
mind.
