Default deploy 2003 vsto addin on outlook 2007 problem

Though, the addin got installed, its not behaving the way it should even
though i got it running with the same configuration in other machine.

The problem is a button which enables/disables other controls on the
toolbar, works for the first time the message (inspector) window is opened
after the outlook is opened. But then when i close the first window and open
another window, it stops disabling/enabling other controls. No exceptions are
occurring and cannot figure out what the problem could be.

Thanks Ken for your reply. Have solved the problem. Yes O2003PIA was
installed. But had added it in launch condition, which would search for it
and could not fine. I have removed the launch condition, so its not
obstructing it now from installing.

A VSTO addin compiled under Outlook 2003 will run unchanged on Outlook 2007.
It won't have support for the ribbon, forms regions or other new stuff but
it will just work.

Are you following the deployment walkthroughs for VSTO applications, using
that documentation I've never had a VSTO Outlook 2003 addin try to install
Outlook 2003 or the Outlook 2003 PIA's on an Outlook 2007 machine. You
wouldn't want that anyway, last registered wins in those cases so that would
make the Outlook 2007 PIA unavailable for that machine.

Is the Outlook 2007 PIA installed on that problem machine? If it is the code
should just install and run.

Hi,

Have created and deployed successfully, an outlook vsto addin for 2003.
But
i am unable to install it on office 2007 for one of the machines as, it is
unable to install O2003PIA as it also requires office sp2. Whenever i try
to
install offce sp2 it says product version not found. Is it because of the
registry problem since i do see the files and folders for 2003 on the
system.
Is there something i am missing.
