How to tell when Outlook is fully loaded?

S

Hi,

So when outlook starts up, it loads my addin, and my addin's startup runs.
In the meantime outlook is loading other addins, and trying to connect to
exchange, blah blah.

It there any way to tell when outlook has finished doing all this, and is
fully initialized? an event perhaps? I would like my addin to wait and not
do anything until outlook has fully loaded and done all it's stuff.

Cheers

Thanks for not actually answering my question with your genius response.
And I check this how? write a webcam interface and point the camera at the
"Connected to Microsoft Exchange" in the status bar ?

No, there is no event like that. You can hook into
Application.MAPILogonComplete or maybe use the first
Explorer.SelectionChange, but the other add-ins aren't going to provide
notifications when they're initialized.
