COM addins run in-process with Outlook and either start every time Outlook
starts or start on demand when the user starts them. If you want something
run every once in a while on a scheduler just compile a standalone EXE and
call it from a scheduler or run it manually.

Haha! Thanks for your reply.
Is is possible that the add-in could be a background process when outlook
starts and just run once a week ?
