        if (langMan.ValidateIdentifier(name))  
            msg += "\"" + name + "\" is a valid identifier." +   
                Environment.NewLine;  
        else  
            msg += "\"" + name + "\" is not a valid identifier." +

    }  

    MessageBox.Show(msg);

Remarks

GetObject is most useful in languages that do not support early binding. In this case, you can name the specific interface or object you want, for example, DTE.GetObject("VCProjects").

IExtenderSite.GetObject only supports the value, DTE, as the Name parameter. This is provided for Extender Providers to get to the DTE object.
