 With Office 2000,
Microsoft introduced the Microsoft Office Developers Edition Code
Librarian. The Microsoft tool is a good introduction to the concept of
code libraries, but can't compare to the feature set of Total Visual
SourceBook.
Microsoft discontinued this with Office 2003. Use this side-by-side
comparison to see which product is right for you.
