Outlook Tool bar

[Ram Manohar]

Hi,
I have a user control with me and I am trying to add that to a Outlook
toolbar in a customized command bar which i create.How do i do that?

Initially I was having a form and a NativeWindow and I was calling
form.Show(NativeWindow.Handle)

As you notice the handle of the parent is given to Show() call.But if you
remove the parameter it will not work.
Now show function of user control has no parameters as well as Parent
property is a Control and I have a NativeWindow with me.How do i assign
UserControl.Parent property to a NativeWindow?
Thanks in advance
Regards
Ram Manohar

Hello Ram,

This feature is implemented in Add-in Express, .NET and VSTO editions. Just
have a look at http://www.add-in-express.com/office-toolbar-controls/.

While showing a control on a toolbar is no sweat, there are a lot of
problems indeed with showing it in multiple Outlook explorer and inspector
windows. Also, the control should process correctly all button presses.
