Hi folks.

I dunno if this is the right place to ask for help with ActiveX / .net /
Outlook, so ill siimpl give it a try :)

I want to develop an ActiveX Control for MS-Outlooks 2003 with Visual
Studio.Net 2003 and .net Framework 1.1 installed.
Ive read tons of stuff about dlls with .Net, so my question is: How to
create a dll wih is kinda readable by Outlook? With VB6, one can create a
Dll, regsvr32 it and use it as an ActiveX-Control in Outlook.How to do this
in .Net?
Do i need a Wrapper for this?
Can i compile my Dll in native Bytecode, so it is like an old dll?
How to give Outlook the "new" Dll so that it can identify it as a container
for an ActiveX-Control?
Do I need to setup the Dll as a Com-Application? What for?

Thanks, best regards

Fabian Werner
