Microsoft this week released a preview of a new software development kit for use with the Open XML standards native to Office 2007.

The company said the SDK is meant to streamline development chores for coders creating Office Business Applications. It contains instructional articles and sample code regarding a number of tasks, including programmatic document creation; tweaking document properties; and working with custom XML within documents. The release coincided with the start of Microsoft's Tech Ed conference in Orlando, Fla.
