I am trying to develop a plugin for Outlook 2002. All it does is scan an
incomming message and if the message fits certain criteria it sends the data
to a program that I've created with VB.NET to process it....

I'm very familiar with VB6 and a little VB.NET, but I don't know much about
creating plugins or Add-Ins. I'm assuming I would use the
Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook COM reference to talk with the outlook.

I guess I'm stuck on how to I get my program to install into Outlook? Or
create a new toolbar on Outlook.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

-Mike
 
Look at the Resources page at www.microeye.com The ItemsCB COM addin
sample in VB6 shows Outlook COM addin best practices and adding
command buttons. There is also a link there to information about COM
addins using the .NET languages.
