Regions for Microsoft Outlook and VSTO launched

Wed, 18 May 2011 10:38:43 GMT

Outlook regions created with Add-in Express Regions for Microsoft Outlook and VSTO.

Create view and form regions on Outlook Explorer and Inspector windows.

Add-in Express Regions for Microsoft Outlook and VSTO is an extension of Visual Studio Tools for Office (VSTO) 2008 and 2010 that allows you to customize Outlook views and Outlook forms with any .NET control. Traditional COM Add-ins developed with VSTO limit developers to using very basic and restricted task panes, or using Outlook Form Regions that have quirky limitations. Add-in Express Regions offer many more features that can be implemented into existing VSTO 2008 or VSTO 2010 Outlook COM Add-in projects. Regions can be resized, hidden, shared, dragged, docked and more.

Features

Add regions to practically all Outlook windows
Create regions for the main Outlook (Explorer) window (up to 17 different areas are supported) or all Outlook item (Inspector) windows
Multiple regions in the same location are "shared." In other words, they are stacked on top of each other and can be easily switched between by the user
Regions can be hidden and minimized
Regions can be dragged and docked into all supported areas that developers allow the users to move them to
Regions are supported for all versions - from Microsoft Outlook 2003 to Microsoft Outlook 2010

Regions for your existing VSTO projects
This solution effectively allows you to continue designing your Outlook solutions using Visual Studio Tools for Office in Visual Studio 2008 or 2010. In other words, even if you have an Outlook Add-in project developed with VSTO 3.0 or VSTO 2010, you can install Add-in Express Regions and immediately start taking advantage of our powerful Advanced Outlook View and Form Regions technology.
