Developing Plug-In for Outlook 2003 and 2007 pxb 10/15/2008 7:49:00 AM For developing Plug-in for both Outlook 2003 and 2007, do we need to develop 2 different versions or can one package be developed to support both? And what would be the recommended dev tools for doing such programming?

If 2003 is the oldest version you care to support, you have a lot of options, including MS VSTO and Add In Express. If you're familiar with .NET, that's probably the fastest way to get started. I'd run out and buy a book from either Ken Slovak or Sue Mosher to help you get a feel for the different add-in platform options.
