Trying to build a Office add-in. Getting the following error:
C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft\VisualStudio\v14.0\OfficeTools\Microsoft.VisualStudio.Tools.Office.targets" was not found. Confirm that the path in the <Import> declaration is correct, and that the file exists on disk.

Is it possible to get VSTO targets and binaries installed in the images?

   Hi Allan,

   We don't support VSTO projects out-of-the-box, but this blog post describes the process of running VSTO projects on AppVeyor: http://codecoding.com/using-appveyor-to-build-a-vsto-project/

   Ummm... why can't this be added to an AppVeyor OS image?

   Indeed! Will deploy VSTO to build workers this week.

   Traditionally VSTO was part of ""Enterprise" Visual Studio SKUs, but now it's OOB.
