vsto vs vs2008

[John]

Hi

1. What is better vsto or vs2008 for outlook addins development in terms of
ease of development and deployment?

2. Can vsto and vs2008 be installed side by side on the same machine?

3. Can vsto develop addins for outlook 2003 on a pc with outlook 2007?

Thanks

Regards

1) VS2008 adds Click Once deployment plus designers for ribbon, custom task pane, and form region development.

2) I don't think so.

3) No. You would need to develop in an Outlook 203 system.
