Outlook 2003 and 2007 AddIn
All:
Env: Windows XP SP2, VS 2005, VS for Office (most recent), Outlook 2007 I would like to implement an add-in that works in both OL 2003 and 2007. Is this possible, or do I need to build a version for 2003 and a version for 2007? (Assume that I am not using anything specific to 2007, e.g., the ribbon). Thanks, John

Outlook 2003 and 2007 AddIn
MS officially supports Outlook 2003 COM addins running on Outlook 2007. Look
at the information from the Outlook team on their blogs. -- Ken Slovak [MVP - Outlook] http://www.slovaktech.com Author: Absolute Beginner's Guide to Microsoft Office Outlook 2003 Reminder Manager, Extended Reminders, Attachment Options http://www.slovaktech.com/products.htm "SvenC" wrote in message ...

Look at the information from the Outlook team on their blogs. I searched "site:blogs.msdn.com VSTO Outlook 2003 support 2007" and did not get any posts which indicate that it is supported. As I do some COM programming where I need to version correctly when producing new releases, I know how easy it is to break something. So with the extra layer of PIAs and VSTO (which also needs correct versioning) on top of the COM type libraries I am a bit uneasy to believe that everything "just works" :-) -- SvenC

It works. Ask Ryan Gregg on his blog site. You don't get ribbon support, but
even VSTO addins using VSTO 2005 SE with the Outlook 2003 PIA's does work with Outlook 2007. -- Ken Slovak [MVP - Outlook] http://www.slovaktech.com Author: Absolute Beginner's Guide to Microsoft Office Outlook 2003 Reminder Manager, Extended Reminders, Attachment Options http://www.slovaktech.com/products.htm "SvenC" wrote in message ...

Hi guys. Please look at the following example: http://www.add-in-express.com/projec...k2003-2007.zip It shows on how you can develop VSTO add-in that supports Outlook 2003 and the Ribbon UI in Outlook 2007. The add-in doesn't require PIAs for Outlook 2007. It uses PIAs for Outlook 2003 only.
