Office 2003 Update: Primary Interop Assemblies & Process ID of Wo

[rmund]

Hi,

I have three questions:

1) Does the "Office 2003 Update: Redistributable Primary Interop Assemblies"
(O2003PIA.EXE)" download help speed up Word VBA via .Net?

2) Will the new version of Office have a vative .Net interface rather than
..net/COM?

3) Is there a way to get the process of id Word that is started via "objWord
= New Word.Application"? I would like to have a a thread that kills Word if
it hangs.
