Is there anyway to do this? I'm assuming there isn't because it appears the
add in I created runs before the code for BCM runs thus the toolbar isn't
available when my code is trying to add it's button.

My code works with the other built in toolbars but just not with the BCM
Toolbar. Is there a way to accomplish. I would like to somehow so if BCM
isn't installed then the button doesn't appear.

Thanks.

The BCM toolbar is not customizable.

Thank you Sue,

I have a question for you in regards to book on Outlook. Is there a book
out there that goes into the OOM for .Net? Filled with how to examples of
how to create add in's and manipulate folders, items etc?

I'm contemplating on your book but it appears it about how to do everything
in VBA. I do most everything in C# so if you're book is by chance in VB.Net
that's ok. I was looking at another MS Press book something to the effect of
programming Outlook and Exchange 2003. But wasn't sure about it either.
Problem is no bookstore around here I can find has either of these for me to
browse through before purchasing.

Until Office 12 comes out, I think you'll need to rely on the many C# samples
in the MSKB, at MSDN, on my OutlookCode.com site, and elsewhere.
