Hi,

I want to write an addin object for outlook. It is to get my mail from
my website... (using my protocol) and then add those mail to outlook
inbox... anyone know how to do it?

using VC++6 or VB6?

is there any differences for different version of outlook97, 2000,
2002, 2003?


Any sample program for me to learn? and no need for me to start from
scratch...

Thanx in advance.

Regards
Tony
 
There is lot of outlook examples on www.microeye.com or try msdn (just
search for outlook addin).

VB support was first added in outlook 2000 - so I think it would be
deficult to code an COM addin that will work with older versions of
outlook.
 
If I have written a addin for outlook 2000 (using VB), will it run
normally on outlook xp and 2003? or need to do something else?

Regards,
Tony
 
It should run just fine as long as you aren't accessing properties or
methods that are restricted in Outlook 2002 or 2003 that aren't restricted
in Outlook 2002 (for example reading HTMLBody or Body) and your code derives
all Outlook objects from the Application object passed to your On_Connection
event handler.
