I am just trying to use some inspectors to get a feel for them, and whenever
I get an inspector, either from an exisiting item or from an item I create in
my program, and I call the Activate() method on it, it opens a new inspector
window. Is there any way to get the Inspector to stay in the main Outlook
window?

Thanks
 
Well, that's what Activate does -- it displays the window for that Inspector
object.
 
I also have the same question for explorers. When I call Display() on a
MAPIFolder to show it's explorer in a new explorer (which brings up an
entirely new instance of Outlook). Is there anyway to just redirect Outlook
to display the explorer that I'm retrieving?

Thanks
 
Set Explorer.CurrentFolder = yourMAPIFolder

I'm not sure what you mean by "access" in either of these cases, but the
answer is generally no.

But manipulate in what fashion? It's hard to answer vague questions with
anything but general answers.

You are correct that you cannot add a button to the navigation pane. You
can, however, add groups and shortcuts to the Shortcuts navigation pane.

But what methods or properties are you interested in? You certainly can know
what item is being displayed and access its properties directly.
