In which MS Word version is the "Spike" included? - ms-word

I want to use the Spike in MS Word but I need to know which was the first version where it's integrated in Word. I couldn't find this information yet.
Thanks a lot in advance.

I found out that it's integrated since Word 2013.

Use older version of Office.js for Word add-in?

Microsoft updated Office.js this week, and a bug in the latest version is causing serious issues for users of my Word add-in.
Is it possible to specify an older version of Office.js? This seems like basic functionality that should be provided.
I see that it is possible to self host Office.js but Microsoft says that you can't do this for add-ins on App Source and my add-in is available there.
Could you please provide details about the bug that you are facing after the update was made? If there is a regression we can make the patch/update to address the issue. So far we have not received any other issues - so any information you can share around which API is failing with error info would be great.
Someone associated with Microsoft posted an answer, but the answer was downvoted and deleted. :(
I have enough rep to see the deleted answer so I will repeat it:
The Office.js version cannot be specified.
So you are stuck with the latest version of Office.js and cannot change that.

Spring Data JPA doesn´t generate technical documentation on PDF format

Good morning,
This morning I tried to put an issue on Github but it was impossible.
https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-data-jpa
I was reviewing the technical documentation and I noticed that from last month, the project don´t generate the documentation on PDF.
Last release with Documentation on PDF version:
https://docs.spring.io/spring-data/jpa/docs/2.0.5.RELEASE/reference/
Any reason to not generate the PDF?
Many thanks in advance
Juan Antonio
Turn out there is actually already a PR for this: https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-data-build/pull/545
Or at least the infrastructure to achieve this.
Hopes are the team will be able to merge this before the GA release, but since it is just additional formats an not actual contents, let alone features it hasn't the highest priority.

Is there a way to disable spell/grammar check on Microsoft Word using their JavaScript API?

If not, is there a way to do that with either docx4j or Aspose?
I've stumbled across the question
docx Template Docx4j replacing text in Java. It describes the actual problem I'm facing, which are template variables (like ${some.variable}) breaking across text runs due to spell check. However, his solution won't work well for me. The best solution I could achieve would be to disable (and maybe re-enable) spell check automatically under the hood.
There isn't at this point in time, but you can give feedback on https://officespdev.uservoice.com/ to request it to be added in future updates to the APIs.
Thanks,
Philip, Software Engineer on the Office Extensibility Team

Is there a way to integrate custom help into the Office 2010 Help System?

I'm working in an Excel add-in. I want to add its own help. I don't care if it replaces the general Excel help - I want to know how.
What I was able to was to add custom help into VS 2010, using the Help Viewer. Does this work for office?
Also, if I had to add a button on the ribbon for the add-in, is there a way to make the information displayed online? I don't like including a file with the installer.
Thanks a lot, guys!!!
Excel's Help System is the Help 2.x System, which is different to the VS Help Viewer, a new Help System that will be included in new Microsoft applications.
To add help into the Help 2.x System in general you can use its plug-in mechanisms.
Finally, there is no way to make that help online. The help file must always be included with the add-in installer.

How do I create an OLE Control?

Without going into why I need OLE.. I need to embed a managed C++ custom control into MS Word 2007 (2003 also would be nice).
So the question is How do I make this managed (.net 3.5) control OLE compliant ?
It seems that I need to do something akin to implementing an interface. But an up-to-date tutorial is something that is proving difficult to find.
I've read the wikipedia article on OLE. All the information that I could google out is ancient (1994) and/or VB centric (4.0-6.0). Anything that makes sense to current times... links/books please post.
Thanks for reading..
