Upgrading 2.7 Outlook Addin to 2007

I have an Outlook Addin that I developed under 2.7 and I am about to upgrade to the 2007 version.

I need to support Outlook versions 2002, 2003 and 2007 and I would like to support 2000 if that is not a big problem. My addin uses an InspectorCommandBar that is displayed for appointments.

What I would like is for my addin to work the same as it does now for Outlook 2000, 2002 and 2003, but for the InspectorCommandBar to show up as a RibbonUI in Outlook 2007.

How do I accomplish this and what version of the PIA will I need to use?

Thanks
Jim

Hi Jim.

You can leave the current version of PIAs that you use. Add-in Express 2007 contains some Ribbon components that will help you to add your own tab and Ribbon controls to the Ribbon UI.
