MS Office Outllok - VSTO - Host Windows.Forms control within an Outlook 2003 form region
-
Hi all, I have developed a VSTO add-in for MS Outlook 2007, which works perfectly within the 2007 version of Outlook, but the problem is that when I try and run it within the 2003 version of Outlook, it doesn't seem to work. Does anyone perhaps know of a site that can offer me with a solotion or perhaps know how I can overcome this issue? Many thanks in advance. Kind regards,

This is not very descriptive. What exactly happens with the 2003 version? I would suggest you take a look on the MSDN site for further information about using the Outlook interfaces.

Sorry about that, well the form region does not display within the Outlook window, that is the issue? :confused: But I have the sneaky suspision that the VS 2008 run time enviorement does not support the VSTO add-ins for Outlook 2003. Visual Studio Tools for Office in Visual Studio 2008 ships with two runtimes: - VSTO 2005 SE runtime to support Office 2003. - VSTO 3.0 runtime to support Office 2007. According to Msdn: This download (VSTOR30.exe) installs the Visual Studio Tools for the Office system 3.0 Runtime, which is required to run VSTO solutions for the 2007 Microsoft Office system built using Microsoft Visual Studio 2008. When installing the VSTO runtime on a non-English version of the operating system, you should also install the appropriate language pack to see the text of the messages from the VSTO runtime in that language, rather than English. Note: VSTO solutions built for use in Microsoft Office 2003 require the Visual Studio 2005 Tools for Office Second Edition Runtime, not this one.

Hi all, After some investigation, I would like to rephrase my question. The problem that I am experiencing is that I can create a form region within a Office 2007 project using VS2008, but as soon as I make use of Office 2003 project within VS2008, I do not have the option to make a form region :confused::confused: .... How can I make use of a form region while developing a project within VS2008 using the Office 2003 project? Many thanks again. Kind regards,
