Has anyone had any luck using InDesign 2.0 Scripting from within a application written in C#?  I currently have an app written in VB6 and would like to convert it to C#.  Unfortunately, I am having some difficulty in getting the type library to be accessible from C#.  InDesign requires that the application be running 

 Set object = CreateObject("Indesign.Application.2.0") 

 I have attempted to create the managed metadata format using "Tlbimp.exe" but when referencing a class I get the following 

  error CS0144: Cannot create an instance of the abstract class or interface  'InDesign.Application' 

 

Any Ideas?  Does anyone know the name of the Type Library that InDesign 2.0 scriting uses?
