Microsoft Visual C++
We can use the Indesign COM object to drive Indesign and its functionlaity from VC++ or C# and the like. What we need to do is import the tlb files in our project so that we have the declerations of the methods exposed by the Indesign's COM interface and make a call to them.
The .tlb file is present at "C:\ProgramData\Adobe\InDesign\Version 7.0\en_US\Scripting Support\7.0\Resources for Visual Basic.tlb". You can use this to create your .h files using the #import statement.
Once you have the .h created i think you will be able to call the Indesign methods, of course you will have to create an instance of the Indesign application.
The .tlb file exists at multiple locations in your system so to be sure that you are using the latest tlb. Search for "Resources for Visual Basic.tlb", rename it and then launch Indesign(it should recreate these files which will have the latest object model). On Win7 launch Indesign using Admin privelages else thes file won't be created.
