Rully:
I moved this post out of the "surveys" forum (that's a moderated forum fos Wrox editors to post questions in for readers to answer - readers can't start new threads there). And I placed it here in the open because I didn't want you to think that we were ignoring or hiding your criticism.

There is at least one other person here who I know is chomping at the bit to answer these issues so I don't want to steal his thunder but I will say, we have a VSTO book on the way. It's 100% written and going through editing now:

Here's a link to it on Amazon:

Our idea for these forums is that readers help each other here. In some of the forums, this works really well (the ASP.NET and general .NET forums I follow are good examples). Where there are several other readers and forum participants who love answering questions, we get really lively responses, but it does depend on community participation. Likewise, we love it when authors get real involved here. Nicholas Zakas (Professional JavaScript), Richard York (Beginning CSS) are a couple of examples of existing authors who answer tons of questions about their topics here, I'm sure there are many others I just don't know about as I don't follow every single one of the more than 200 individual forums for books and topics here.
