title: How to pass params to MS Word 2003 document add-in?
body: <p>I need to find a way to pass some strings to my word 2003 document add-in. I see many ways to do it, but none of them fits my requirements well:</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li>I can write custom parameters to my word document, but when ThisDocument_Startup event handler is fired, parameters are not filled yet. I also didn't find an event, that is fired after a custom parameter is written.</li>
  <li>I can use word command-line args, but I open this document via my own application and need some way to interact with opened word instance, so I use Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.Application class to do it. I didn't find a way to pass command-line args to word COM object.</li>
  <li>I can use general approach to process interaction, e.g. named pipes, but IMHO that would be overkill.</li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>Can anybody suggest a better solution? Or maybe I am doing something wrong?</p>
