I just posted both the executable and source code for an Outlook 2000/2002 COM
add-in to my site:
http://www.dimastr.com/babelfish/
The sample is written in Delphi 6 Enterprise and shows how to add a custom
button to all Outlook explorers and inspectors. Besides being an educational
exercise, the add-in actually does something usefull - it translates any
selected e-mail in Outlook to half a dozen different languages using the
BabelFish SOAP service from http://babelfish.altavista.com
Suggestions are welcome.

Dmitry

very nice and very useful.

when I can persuade my bosses to get me and upgrade to D6 I will look at
the code and let completely lost I am sure.

I think you'll be surprised at just how easy it is. Too bad for that memory
leak, though. Hopefully it'll be fixed in SP1.

Does it mean, the source would not work with D5 professional?

In this case yes. Though the same affect could be achieved in D5 Pro.

It will compile in D5 if you remove all the references to the SOAP libraries. In
this case the add-in will simply add buttons to the Outlook inspectors and
explorers, but they won't do anything useful.
