ComShims for Outlook Addin, questions

[Karlyo]

I have created 1 WORD and 1 EXCEL (2007) addin using the Shared-In project
template, and they are working fine.

I'm working on the Outlook 2007 addin
I have the book Programming Appication Office Outlook 2007 by Randy Bryne &
Ryan Gregg.
I have read the book, written my code, tested on the dev box and have also
put in msgbox in the shim, and Connect.cs and the designer. I get these
messages on load. I look at the Trust center and the addin still shows
Corree.dll. I'm not sure what is going wrong. I thought the Shim should be
showing as the dll.
I have followed the debugging and online how to make a Outlook addin using a
COMSHIM. I deploy to an test box and thing does not come up. I guess it could
be a install issue, not really sure how to figure this one out. I have read
serveral other posts and would love some help.

Try using the COM Shim Wizard instead of modified versions of the shims in
Randy and Ryan's book. Download it from
