I working on an plugin for Outlook and i have Outlook 11 (2003) installed on
my development PC. This means that in the designer Connect.dsr i can only
select Outlook version 11. This means that when i compile the project the
plugin only works with Outlook2003. Is there a library i can download that
will let me add Outllok 9 to the dsr file so that the plugin works with all
versions of Outlook since Outlook 9?

I dont really want to uninstall Outlook 2003 and use Outlook 2000 as this is
also my main work PC and i like using the new version.

Thanks

You need to install the earliest version of Outlook you want the code to run
on and compile with that.

What many of us do is use some virtual machine software such as VMWare or
Virtual PC to set up a compilation setup machine and use that for compiling.
For example on my main development workstation I run Outlook 2003 and do
most of the development there. Then I open a VM that has Outlook 2000
installed on it (and my compiler) and do the compilations there.
