Hello,

Has anyone had success deploying an add-in for Outlook 2000 written
with Visual Studio 2005? I cannot even make a msgbox "Hello World"
onConnection with outlook. I am not using Visual Tools for Office and
I am compiling with the office 9.0 Object library. Any ideas on what I
am doing wrong?
 
Does it work on your development machine?

Can you debug it?

Is it disabled (About window, Disabled Items button) ?

Which is your specific problem?

Sorry for the delay, but I think my co-worker was able to include the
extensibility.dll to make the project work on a test machine. I have
yet to make that work myself, but the add-in works on my development
machine in debug mode, and does not work when installed on a separate
test machine. The LoadBehavior for the add-in in the registry is
disabled (btw, I am testing on Outlook 2000) every time I start
Outlook.

The add-in just does not seem to be detecting/loading with Outlook
2000.
My test machine is running windows XP, Office 2000.

If it is failing silently maybe the add-in is not found, or not correctly
registered. You may want to use RegMon (http://www.sysinternals.com/) to
monitor the registry activity when Outlook tries to load the add-in.
