You need to reference the Outlook PIA. Then cast the selection property to
type Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.Selection such as:
using Outlook = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook;
.....
Outlook.Selection currentSelection = viewCtl.Selection as Outlook.Selection;
if ( currentSelection != null && currentSelection.Count > 0 )
{
Outlook.MailItem currentMailItem = currentSelection[0] as
Outlook.MailItem;
if ( currentMailItem != null )
{
// you've got a selected mail item!
}
}
