optimize word automation

We have a system that exports building descriptions to a word document by automation. Eg we create a word application and document and insert text and tables by automation. The system supports word 2000 and word 2003 We need the following to be done 1. Optimize execution speed of the export. It runs slow, especially on word 2003 2. Autofit tables in double column export mode. This is the table of content and We have created an installer that installs all necessary files to your system. When the system is installed an export can be initiated by running the executable and selecting an appropriate xml file located in the xml directory. Note that the path for the template should be corrected in the beginning of the xml file. The xml file emulates an export. The appearance of the export must not be altered. A visual studio 2005 solution is included in the code directory. Note that you only must modify in the ldword9 project. We are unsure about the project price - so feel free to bid whatever that seems reasonable and ask for further information if necessary. ## Deliverables 1) Complete and fully-functional working program(s) in executable form as well as complete source code of all work done. 2) Deliverables must be in ready-to-run condition, as follows (depending on the nature of the deliverables): a) For web sites or other server-side deliverables intended to only ever exist in one place in the Buyer's environment--Deliverables must be installed by the Seller in ready-to-run condition in the Buyer's environment. b) For all others including desktop software or software the buyer intends to distribute: A software installation package that will install the software in ready-to-run condition on the platform(s) specified in this bid request. 3) All deliverables will be considered "work made for hire" under U.S. Copyright law.
