Question

Hi

I developed smart tag in MS word Addin 2007 - by using VS 2008. I'm able to see the smart tag in word. Now I wanted to get the same smart tag in outlook 2010 compose/read mail.

1. How to enable the custom smart tags in outlook 2010.

2. Does this smart feature available in application level.

Please clarify me.

Hi Chandu,

Thanks for posting in the MSDN Forum.

As far as I know, the Office 2010 doesn't support Smart tages anymore.

Have a good day,

Tom

Hi Tom,

Thanks for the reply.

Could you please clarify me whether the word (2007) add-ins (smart tags) can be displayed in outlook (2007) compose editor?

I wanted to understand whether word add-in smarttags can be used in outlook or not….

Thanks.

Hi Chandu,

I don't think your Word add-in can used in Outlook compose editor.

I would recommend you create a Outlook add-in project. And implement Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word Assembly in the Project. Then you can access Word.Document via (Word.Document)Inspector.WordEditor. I think you might be use smarttags via Document instance which you get from inspector.Wordeditor.

Have a good day,

Tom

Hi Chandu,

I'm no experience with Smart tag program. Outlook 2007 doesn't support VSTO Smart Tag. I will show you a KB which regard about it. http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=306422. I hope it can help you.

Have a good day,
