Building an outlook add-in

I have started out using the add-in wizard to create a new project. But don't know where to go from there!

I am making this addin for outlook 2003. I would like for it to add a drop down combo onto the button bar of each new email.

Eventually what I want the drop down to do is allow the easy selection of an email template to use. However for now I'll be happy to just get the first step completed.

If anyone can suggest a good resource, or example that I can use to learn from I would greatly appreciate that!

Thanks,
Josh

A good place to start Outlook programming is at outlookcode.com

Thanks for the link, but unfortunately I do not see any information there about development using .Net 2005, where it seems to me it is a completely different ball game than it was in .Net 2003. I am interested in the new features of 2005, and how to do things the new way.

Thanks,
Josh
