using UNO components (OpenOffice) in VB.NET

[Amedee Van Gasse]

Hello,

Sorry for the crosspost, I think both groups are relevant.

How can I create and/or open an OpenWriter and an OpenCalc document
from a VB.NET application?

According to the OOo documentation, OpenOffice 2.0 supports the Common
Language Infrastructure (CLI) for bindings to UNO (Universal Network
Objects) components. I can find a lot of documentation on developing
new UNO components, but I'm a bit lost on using existing UNO components
in VB.NET

Any pointers would be appreciated.

I found a little bit of info and an example, very well hidden in the
OOo SDK.
More information is still very much appreciated.
