Default Outlook Add-in with C#

One-off forms encapsulate the form design within the form so they are much
bigger than a form that's not one-offed. They can't run code that might be
behind the form. Since they don't use a published form they cannot respond
to any updates, they always will have the design that was embedded.

There are a number of other problems with one-offed forms. See
http://www.outlookcode.com/d/formpub.htm#oneoff for a list of various
problems you can create that way.

I got it to work, thanks. Why would this one-off cause a problem, the C#
code
is part of an add-in that is installed. So, a user with the add-in
installed
sends a meeting request to a user that dosnt have the add-in, the user
with
out the add-in just wont see the new tab. Or is this the case ?

Just design the form and publish it using C# code. Make sure it's included
in your installation. Don't ask for problems and if you do don't ask for
sympathy when they happen. If you add a control to a form using code it's
one-offed.
