I have created a shared add-in for Microsoft Outlook. It adds a button
to the Outlook standard toolbar which when clicked opens up a windows
form and performs ceratin actions. The add-in is developed using
Microsoft Visual Basic.net using the Shared Add-in Wizard. It also

Has anyone ever seen this situation.  I have a custom, published
appointment form with two user-defined fields (defined both on the
custom form, and in the folder); in my vsto add-in code, I am setting
these value via the ItemProperties collection (not UserProperties

I have in a C# project this method to check if my com add-in alredy installed
private static bool IsAlreadyInstalled()
{

From C# code:
I have com add-in to outlook 2003, code in c#.
I want to check if this add-in already  installed in this computer.
private void isOutlook()

I have an ActiveX Control (.ocx) written in VB6 that I put on the
second page tab in an Outlook Appointment custom form. This works fine
for Outlook 2000-2003. I am now trying to port this into a separate
project to work with Outlook 2007.

An Outlook::_MailItem object in the Outlook object model supports a method
called put_DeferredDeliveryTime()
To set the value for this structure in C++ the put method requires a DATE
object. I don't seem to be able to figure out what this structure is.

I have a strange problem:
I created a com add-in for outlook 2003 in vs.net 2003 c#.
I installed this setup in 3 different computer, (toolbar add-in).
But in one of them I can't see me new add-in toolbar in the outlook.

How can I check from C# code if outlook program is already running?
if not, I run outlook with:
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("OUTLOOK.EXE");

How can I set my form into  outlook 2003 (or 2000) main pane (up right side)?
Is it's possible without VSTO?
I want to display my form in the outlook window (explorer), not on the
outlook window, by my com add in button click.

I am creating outlook2000 add in using vc++6.
I planned to have different toolbar for compose window, reply window,
main window...
I have implemented new inspector handling method.

I developed a Contact Management application and wish to add a button
which launches this application from within Outlook 2003. I created
the button manually using the "Customize" options for the toolbar. Is
there a way to programmatically create a toolbar button to do this, so

I have an add-in with a custom task pane in Word 2007, where I import
the recipients for a mail merge. Unfortunately the whole application
freezes, when I import many contacts (>1000), so it's impossible to
click on an abort-button.

I have a vsto add-in with event handlers on Close and Write.  I'm not
getting the Write event when I create an appointment, press escape,
get the prompt "do you want to save changes", answer 'Yes'.  I get the
Close event, but not Write.  Here is the behavior I'm seeing:
