How can I adjoin my custom forms to top and right of Navigation Pa
 

I created 2 custom forms with 2 different functionalities. How can I adjoin
frist form to the top of the navigation pane? When user clicks on a button
control on my first form, I would like to display only my second custom form
to the right of the navigation pane. I would also like to hook into my own
business logic for the functionalities.

I am using Visual Studio 2005 and VSTO SE; C#.

Is this all possible?? I'm I using the right tools and heading down the
correct path to do this Add-in for Outlook?

Please help!!

You can't place your forms where you want. The best you could do, assuming
you are programming against Outlook 2007, is to use your forms for custom
task panes and place the task panes at the bottom, floating, left, right or
top. If you are programming against Outlook 2003 there are no custom task
panes.

Can I adjoin a form region to the Navigation pane?

No. The Navigation Pane is shown in an Explorer. Form regions are shown in
open Inspectors or in the preview pane.

You're not going to be able to do what you want unless you locate the
navigation pane using Win32 API calls then overlay your forms where you
want, which would then overlay existing Outlook windows. It would look
horrible.

I think you're going to have to modify your goals with what's actually
possible.
