Tomorrow, we will be launching Office System here in Switzerland. I have agreed to do a demo on XML in Office at the launch event - so I will be talking again on how to use Excel 2003, Word 2003 and InfoPath as standard front-ends / rich clients for any XML data.

If you are interested in resources on the topic, you may refer to the slides, Urs and I created for the MSDN TechTalk on XML in Office last month. The Office Developer Center on MSDN is another great well of resources.

Other points of interest:

• The Office 2003 Editions Resource Kit site can be found here.
• The Microsoft Office InfoPath 2003 SDK can be downloaded here.
• Visual Studio Tools for Office System information is located here.
   
• Ah, and don't forget to update your Office installation from time to time...

It is also noteworthy that Visual Studio Tools for Office System is not a free download (as I thought it might become), but an add-on that can be purchased for Office Professional 2003.
