Troubles with COM Add-in for Outlook 2003

[L. Hummel]

Hi all,

I am trying to construct an Add-in for Outlook 2003; I work in Visual
Studion .NET Enterprise Architect, and have followed the instructions
for creating a "Shared Add-in". However, there are some troubles.

I have created a custom form in VB.NET. Now I want a button to appear
at the Outlook "Standard" Command Bar. This button should be used for
activating the form.

However, although I have followed all instructions, for some reason
the button does not appear on the command bar. I have configured the
add-in to start automatically when the Outlook application starts, and
the Add-in indeed starts - however, the button does not appear.

Could anybody give a clue what can be wrong?

Best regards,
L. Hummel, Denmark

What's your code look like? You need to manipulate the Outlook Commandbar
object model.
