Hi all,

I have done an outlook addins in vb .net 2003.
This addin has been made with the references of "Microsoft Office 11.0
object library" (outlook 2003).
But it doesn't work with Outlook XP (2002), if i want to add references to
"Microsoft Office 10.0 object library", .Net cannot add it, because one
already loaded.
What happens if i exclude the interop.outlook.dll ?

Does anybody can help me ?

Thanks

Ben
 
Ok it works in Outlook 2002, but it's strange.

I had to desinstall Outlook 2003 and install Outlook 2002, then in .net i
had to delete the reference to Outlook 11, and add a reference to Outlook
10.

The addin works fine, but if i didn't have an installation of Outlook 2002,
how can i do this ? :(

You always as a rule compile on a computer that has the oldest version of
Outlook on it that you want to support. Of course you then must late bind to
any method or properties that were added after that earliest supported
version.
