Hi Everyone,

I have developed a VSTO Project for Office Application (Word, Excel, PPT). I also created a setup project in that which is working fine.

The only Problem is when I install/Upgrade the Application it does not prompt user to close Office Application If already Open. Please Let me know how to do this.

Thanks And Regards
