The Office 2000 Developer includes the following:

Microsoft Office Premium CD-ROM

Office Developer Tools CD-ROM

• A royalty-free distribution license (including the Microsoft Graph run-time application) and tools that allows you to distribute copies of your custom Microsoft Access applications to all your users, whether or not they have Access installed on their computers.
  
  
• Replication Manager, which schedules updates among replicas, determines which objects in the database are replicated, and manages multiple replica sets at one time. By using Replication Manager, you can see a visual display of all the replicas in a set.
  
  
• Microsoft Visual SourceSafe 6.0 (including the Visual SourceSafe Add-in for Access and the Visual SourceSafe Visual Basic Editor Add-in), which supports multideveloper application development.
  
  
• ActiveX controls that you can use to add versatility to your applications and duplicate Microsoft Windows 95 functionality, including controls for Internet applications and controls to connect Microsoft Outlook messaging with data and other Office applications.
  
  
• Updated Windows API Viewer with enhanced performance. The Windows API Viewer contains declarations and constants used with the Windows 95 application programming interface (API). You can copy and paste these declarations and constants into your Visual Basic modules.
  
  
• The Data Environment, a user interface for easily connecting solutions to external databases.
  
  
• The Make Add-in feature, which you can use to create an add-in directly from the Visual Basic Editor for a specific Visual Basic Editor host.
  
  
• The Package and Deploy Wizard, which you can use to deliver Office programmable solutions for any Visual Basic for Applications 6.0 host to disk, network, and the Web.
  
  
• The Code Librarian, a tool for browsing existing source files for code snippets. You can search text, view descriptions and comment headers, and insert the text into your current project.
  
  
• The HTML Help Workshop Software Development Kit (SDK), with which you can create Help topics similar to those in Microsoft Office 2000. The SDK includes the HTML Help Workshop and the run-time version to distribute to your users.
  
  
• The Agent SDK, which provides programmatic control over Office Assistants you create.
  
  
• Microsoft Office WebBot Components, with which you create applets embedded inside Office 2000 documents. With the user interface these applets provide, users don't need to author script and Visual Basic for Applications code to take advantage of DHTML features. WebBots are written in Microsoft Script Editor.
  
  
• Microsoft Developer Network (MSDN), Office 2000 edition. The entire MSDN library is included, as well as a special default subset of Office and Visual Basic for Applications programming commands .
