Make an addin work in the background

[Bill M.]

Hello !

I have an addin which take a long time to analyse outlook
items.
While the addin works, the user has no mean to use Outlook.
Is there a way I could make my addin work in the background ?

I use Visual C++, and I access Outlook items via Extended MAPI.

Bill.

No, addins run in-process with Outlook unless you spawn a separate process
or EXE to do the processing you want.
