I am writing a Outlook 2007 Addin using VB.Net. I want to know how to write
into the Outlook status bar. The same place where messages such as,
"Send/Recieve completed"
"All Folders are up to date"
are displayed.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

If you can use Win32API, you may be able to access it.

Here are the classnames you want to look for:
rctrl_renwnd32 (Main Window)
msctls_statusbar32 (statusbar)
rctrl_sbpwnd32 (status bar panel 1, where it tells you how many
items you have)
rctrl_sbpwnd32 (status bar panel 2, where it says "All folders
are up to date")
rctrl_sbpwnd32 (status bar panel 3, where it says "Connect to
Microsoft Exchange")
