Loading samples and some question about VSTO SE

Thank, I new to VSTO world, I need to create addins for outlook 2003 with VisualStudio 2005.

My setup:
Visual Studio 2005 SP1 English
VSTO SE english
Office 2003 SP2 French

I downalod and install VSTO SE tool without problem.
After reading a lot on the MSND documentation I start trying some small code. For example I try to add a TaskPane with this function:

Microsoft.Office.Tools.CustomTaskPane

But CustomTaskPane are not member of Microsoft.Office.Tools on my system. It is normal?
I also downlaod the VSTO-Outlook Sample.msi to try some sample, but when I try to open it in VS2005 I got this error:

One or more projects in the solution could not be loaded for the following reason:
- The application for the project is not installed

Do you think the problem are the french language of office? Do I need the full VSTO ?

Can you point my to documentation (i don't know the right name of this control) about adding custom:
- Item in the selction bar (bottom left of oultook) where you find Email, Calandar, COntacts, ...
- Add Pane like when you click for Help
- Add content form like when you click on Inbox. The section that display the email content

Thank for your time, sorry for my bad explication.

I can help with your first question regarding TaskPane. VSTO Custom Task Panes for Outlook are only available in Outlook 2007, not 2003. Possibly the sample you are downloading is a Outlook 2007 sample?

For your other questions, you will probably have better luck in this newsgroup(http://msdn.microsoft.com/newsgroups/default.aspx?dg=microsoft.public.office.developer.outlook.vba&lang=en&cr=US) or this site (http://www.outlookcode.com/forums.aspx).

Hi,
I'm having the same problem, but with MS Word. I'm new to VSTO SE, using VS 2005 Professional (German), VSTO SE (German) and Office 2003 SP 2 (German).

I have the exact same problem that when building the project, the compiler complains about CustomTaskPane not being part of Microsoft.Office.Tools. I have tried reinstalling VSTO SE with no luck.

Any help is appreciated.

Custom Task Panes are not available in Office 2003, only Office 2007. You may be able to use an Actions Pane though.

This MSDN article may help you with that: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/zbxt1ax4(VS.80).aspx
