What is the name of the tool that contain MsWord and Excel in vb2008?
and is there on the toolbox?
 
If you're talking about a Windows Forms application then there aren't any. If you want to interact with Office apps in VB.NET then you have two options:

1. Office Automation, i.e. reference the appropriate COM Object Library.

2. Use VSTO, i.e. Visual Studio Tools for Office, which is part of VS Pro and above (not sure about Standard and definitely not Express).
