Outlook 2003 COM Add-In Using Office Style

Hello

I am writing a COM Add-In for Outlook 2003 that will have a number of
forms. I would like these to be styled like Office 2003 and not just XP
style. Is this possible by somehow referencing the
Microsoft.Offic e.Core library?

Any help on this would be very appreciated.

Thanks

James

Nays,

Unfortunately, no. Office doesn't offer anything that assists with the
rendering of UI elements.

Your add in can always place items in the UI for office, which will
assume its styling, but that's about it.

Hope this helps.

Hi all, I'm trying to add a user property to an Outlook contact item. VisualStudio tells me that the method signature was like this: UserProperties.Add(string Name,Outlook.OlUserPropertyType Type, object AddToFolderFields, object DisplayFormat) So, what I do is: oMyItem.UserProperties.Add("myProperty",Outlook.OlUserPropertyType.olYesNo, true, XXX???XXX);

Having a problem sending emails through vb.net. Our inhouse software automatically sends an email to the programming staff whenever an error is encountered. This code works just fine on machines that are windows 2000 based. We recently upgraded from Outlook 2000 to Outlook 2003, and it still works. We have one machine with XP service pack 1. It works fine there. This also was upgraded from outlook 200 to outlook 2003.
