Hi I have created an Outlook Shared addin in C# on visual studio .net 2005 platform. I want to deploy this add-in as a separate msi which will be installed after the main windows application is installed this shared add-in adds a button to the command bar of the outlook and on the click of the button all the selected mails in the inbox are getting saved in the database. I want to read the connection string from .exe.config file of the main windows application.According to the requirement only one msi has to be supplied to the customer.So i want to know how to add my shared addin's msi to the main application's msi, And i don't know how i will get the address of the .exe.config file from which i want to read the connection string as this file will be created after the installation of the windows application and after that my add-in will be installed? How to deploy the shared add-in with the main windows application? Rite now i am hard coding the address of the application's .exe.config file and i am successfully reading the connection string from that but i want to do it during installation.
