.Net Scripting / Hosting / Embedding

Note to readers: I apologize for this incorrigible post.  I’m just bookmarking these sites for future use.

Add VB.NET Scripting to .NET Apps

The .NET Framework contains classes (such as those in the Microsoft.VisualBasic.Vsa namespace) that allow you to host a scripting engine in your application so that users can script your application. This article will show you how to host the VB.NET engine in your application, compile and run VB.NET code, and deal with syntax errors.

[Ed: vsa has been deprecated, look at VSTA SDK]

Using .NET Languages to make your Application Scriptable

You can go a long way to make a large application customisable. You can include a comprehensive options and preferences system or even use configuration files to allow access to advanced settings, but there’s nothing like being able to write code within an application to fully control it or simply hook in to it.

VSTA SDK is a new component that has to be licensed through summsoft.com for it to be legally distributable.
