I am new to Outlook programming. I have a question about creating 2007

add-ins with 3rd-party controls such as Infragistics editable windows

datagrid in Outlook form (custom form. I guess)? All the information I read

so far, it seems all the add-ins pretty much is focus on interacting Outlook

built-in objects. But what I am looking for is to use Outlook as some sort

of host environment for an existing Clickonce application which interacts

with external data sources, such as SQL Server or web services. Any need to

tailor the existing application to work with the Outlook programming model is

acceptable.

Thanks.

Is it possible to do so? If so, what are the options? If anyone could point

me to some sample code or posts, that would be highly appreciated.

You can add grid controls to custom forms and to forms in addins. It would

be entirely up to you to populate the grid in code.

You can look at www.outlookcode.com for tons of samples and code forums, and

you can just look at the posts in this group.
