using outlook with word set as editor

[Guest]

I have developed two add-ins for MS word 2003 and MS outlook 2003 using vb 6.0.
the add-ins adds menus under the file menu in word and outlook respectively.

the problem which i am facing is that whenever i am setting the word as as
editor for outlook, the menu's displayed while creating/editing e-mail
message under file menu are of add-ins corresponding to word integration
add-ins and not of outlook integration add-ins

In the Word.WindowActivate event you can check for Window.EnvelopeVisible.
If true it's a WordMail window, if false a Word document window. That tells
you if you need to enable or disable the UI in that window.
