Can I make C#.NET start outlook in the code?

I'm trying to parse text-based file attachments (txt, doc, etc...). However, I can't seem to get to the binary information itself. I can get the filename and I can save the file out to some temporary folder and open it from there, but that seems messy. Is there any way to access the content of an attachment without saving it, reading ...

I have a custom task pane I've made in VSTO for Outlook 2007, but it needs a fair amount of screen real estate to be functional. I'd like to just take over the place of the Reading Pane, as it won't really be needed when this addon is active. It's also a really great spot since this addon relies on drag-and-drop from mail folders to this...
I'm trying to get Outlook to save the attachment in a daily email to a folder where I can have a file system watcher ready to parse and analyze the attachment (it's the report of a data integrity checker). I've set up a Rule that is supposed to run a VBA script, but it just doesn't run as far as I can tell. I've verified in VB6 that th...
I was playing around with Outlook forms (through Tools -> Forms -> Choose Form), and now all my existing Sent Items look like Contacts with actual messages embedded into the Notes field; I have no idea how that happened! How can I fix it??? Thanks!!! ...
I understand that Outlook has set items, i.e. Mail, Task, Calendar, Notes, etcetera. How can you create a custom Item that Outlook will recognize as the others? I know that when you add the Business Contact Manager it creates Items like "Opportunities" Can you override an Item, or inherit an Item and alter/add properties and methods? ...
How can I copy diff output (diff old-version.cpp new-version.cpp) into an Outlook email so I can send it to other people with syntax highlighting?

It only provide API to syncStart/SyncEnd a defined sync profile, with one exception call "Application Folders" I am now using PRF to setup the Outlook, but it is difficult to read and I cannot find a reference to do an advance customiza...
I am trying to set up a click-once deployment for an Outlook add-in in C# that uses a CE database. I found this site: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/6fehc36e.aspx which purports to be a method to add any file to a click-once app. However, when I follow the directions which say to add the database file to the appropriate applic...
Goal: To have a button in the Outlook toolbar which, when pressed, sends the current message in it's entirety (perhaps as a .msg file) via post to a URL. Some kind of browser window must be opened in the process so the user can enter login details for the application at the URL (unless I can get around this somehow, thoughts?). I have c...
I'm writing a VSTO add-in to add a button the Standard toolbar for all new MailItems in Outlook 2003. I've got it mostly finished, but I can't see to work out how to set the button's position on the taskbar - ideally I'd like to place it right next to the Send button. Here's the code I have so far. Private Sub colInsp_NewInspector(By...

I'd like to programmatically add a PST file to a person's Outlook profile. I found some code here: http://www.eggheadcafe.com/community/aspnet/65/10030171/try-this-code.aspx While that does the trick, it still leaves the question - "Where does outlook keep this list of mounted PST files?" Is it in the registry? A config file somewhere?...
