Sorry that this isn't quite the right newsgroup, but it's the best place I
could find to post.

When developing an add-in using VSTO 2005 SE to make an Outlook 2007 add-in,
is there a new model for property pages? I've implemented the
Outlook.PropertyPage stuff on a UserControl, and have the [DispId(-518)]
attribute set on my PageCaption property getter, but when I go into
Tools-Options I don't see my property page.

It's the same old object model for property pages. This looks like it's a C#
addin?

In my user control for the property pages I have this:

[DispID(-518)]
public string Caption
{
// m_caption has the caption
get { return m_caption; }
set { m_caption = value; }
}

In my property page event handler in ThisAddin I have this (example for
Tools, Options property page):

private void m_objOutlook_OptionsPagesAdd(Outlook.PropertyPages Pages)
{
ToolsOptionsPP oPP = new ToolsOptionsPP(); //the user control
string caption = "Whatever caption you want";

oPP.Caption = caption;
Pages.Add(oPP, caption);

oPP = null;
}

That's it. Nothing fancy.

One other thing, did you set the
[System.Runtime.InteropServices.ComVisibleAttribute (true)] attribute for the
user control class? It would look like this:

[System.Runtime.InteropServices.ComVisibleAttribute (true)]
public partial class ToolsOptionsPP : UserControl
{

I'd probably use the program_addins or program_vba groups as more
appropriate, BTW. Program_vba has become a catch-all and isn't only VBA
stuff any longer.
