Default Help with AddIn

I wrote an Outlook Addin a while back and I'm trying to see if it still works
in Outlook 2003. In can't remember exactly how I got this installed in
Outlook in the past, I think I used the registry keys for an Exchange client
extension. Now I'm looking to register it in a newer fashion, maybe an ECF
file. Is that how addins are supposed to be installed/registered? Can
someone point me to docs regarding this and potentially any samples?

By the way, this is not an Exchange extension as I implement the Office
extensibility interface (IDTExtensibility2).

Exchange extensions use ECF's. Addins register themselves in either HKCU or
HKLM.

Did you use a designer? What language did you use? If you used a designer
you just need to run regsvr32 on the DLL.

I did not use a designer. I wrote my own ATL C++ COM object. Is there some
doc that talks about the registry keys that are required?
