I am trying to create an office 2013 app in visual studio 2013, however I the only options I can choose for my project in tab "Office" are : Office 2010 workbook / template / add-in .

I've heard that for some people it works even if the office version installed is 2013.

But in my case it doesn't work - when I am trying to run office 2010 add-in/template project I am getting an error, which states that proper version of the application is not installed on this computer.

( I have installed version 2013, which I want to develop for and project is for version 2010)

I know that SOMEWHERE, but I don't know where, there are office 2013 templates for visual studio..

Maybe those could help.

Any help would be appreciated.

My goal now is just to create HelloWorld office 2013 project in visual studio.
