With this visual RAD toolkit you can easily develop managed, secure, isolated, version-neutral and deployable plug-ins for Outlook Express and Windows Mail.

 

Add-in Express gives you a unified extensibility model based on familiar interfaces and objects of Microsoft Office and Outlook, visual designers for customizing Outlook Express menus and toolbars, advanced view and form regions and more.

 

Add-in Express is developed in Visual C# and directly supports Visual Basic .NET (VB .NET), C# and C++ in Visual Studio 2003, 2005 and 2008, as well as RemObjects Chrome.

Key benefits:

• Add-in Express employs the Microsoft Office COM Add-in technology for Outlook Express extensions. By choosing Add-in Express you gain familiar techniques and features including the IDTExtensibility2 interface, the "main" Outlook windows architecture, the CommandBars collection for accessing menus and toolbars (command bars), and a unified object model. 

• Add-in Express adds to each Outlook Express project a special module, the add-in module, which has a visual designer and serves as a container for other Outlook Express specific components such as toolbars, menus, controls and OE event components. This module and its designer centralize the general logic of your add-in, and empower you to extend the Outlook Explorer GUI with custom toolbars and menus with a couple of clicks. 

With Add-in Express you can:

• Build custom toolbars for the main OE window and mail windows and customize them with several types of controls. Now the following controls are available for adding to Outlook Express toolbars: simple, pop-up, dropdown, split buttons and separators.

• Add custom menu items to the main Outlook Express menu and Inspector menus. 

• Create regions for the Preview pane. 

• Develop view and form regions for the main Outlook Express window, mail compose and read windows. 

• Build regions for the Folder List, Contacts pane and Outlook Bar.

Main Features:

·       
• Outlook Express extensibility. Using Add-in Express components and tools you can quickly extend the Outlook Express GUI, customize OE main menu and toolbars as well as menus and toolbars on mail windows. 

• Powerful project templates. They comprise all necessary functionality for developing Outlook Express plugins and centralize all technology-specific components through visual designers and modules. 

• Component-centric programming model. Special components of Add-in Express make coding productive, and add-ins feature-rich and effective.

• Ability to create version-independent plug-ins. With Add-in Express, you write your code once and have it work in Outlook Express 6 on Windows 2000 and XP and in Windows Mail on Vista.

• Unified Outlook Express Objects. Add-in Express reflects the Outlook Object Model to Outlook Express and, in that way, lets you benefit from your experience in Outlook development. You use Outlook-like objects and events when accessing Outlook Express.

• A dedicated loader isolates each add-in into its own AppDomain. You can build managed, easily deployable and secure extensions for Outlook Express that extend its GUI and automate its objects.

• Setup projects created automatically. To each Outlook Express solution, Add-in Express adds a special setup project based on the built-in Visual Studio technology.
