Can you control the order of add-ins hooked to the same event?

One of our clients runs an add-in that hooks into the ItemSend event. Our Add-in hooks into the same event. A requirement is that first the other Add-in completes it's tasks before our add-in kicks in.

Is there a way to make sure our add-in's hook is called last?

Bert,

You can try tp play with the ProgID of your add-in: the add-ins load in the alphabetical order of their ProgIDs. I'd check if this specific event is connected in the same or in the reverse order. Before you change the ProgID, you need to unregister your add-in project. Otherwise, this will create a mess in the registry.
