Hello World example?

I've got something that I'd like to implement in Outlook as a demonstration
to show some folks what we could be doing. I'd like to have a panel that
displays employee information based upon who the sender is of the current
email. I have web services all ready to go for the data lookup. What I
would like to find is an example of how to pull this off. My target platform
is OL 2007 and I'm using VS2008. Is there a good "hello world" example that
can show me how to pull this off?

Thanks!

I don't know of anything specific to what you want but there are lots of
sample COM addins for Outlook 20007 out there. Not many using VS2008 though,
most are set up for VS2005 but probably can be loaded into VS2008.

I have some sample addin templates up at
http://www.slovaktech.com/outlook_2007_templates.htm, the Outlook team has
sample addins at the Office Developer section at MSDN, there are links to
other samples and lots of other code at www.outlookcode.com.
