[IronPython] word Automation

[Anthony Tarlano]

Hello,

I finally found sometime this weekend to check out IronPython's support for 
the Office2003 PIA's. Final impression is that somethings work, but most 
didn't. 

Here's a link to the
bug<http://gotdotnet.com/Workspaces/bugtracker/bugdetails.aspx?id=ad7acff7-ab1e-4bcb-99c0-57ac5a3a9742&bugid=e31caeb5-9512-4a45-9e56-a1efd752234e>I
opened showing a small amount of interaction with the word application
class via the console.
