Sorry for asking such a stupid question, but i googled for about two hours and couldn't find an answer to my question:

How can i develop an Outlook 2013 add-in?

I have an add-in which was created in C# 2010 and for Outlook 2010. Now i would like to extend it in that way, that in Outlook 2013 are the two explorer events InlineResponse and InlineResponseClose.

I searched for a never version of the VSTO and PIA, but every website told me that these are for VS 2012 only?

Can someone of you explain me what i need to extend this add-in or show me a link where this is described? Sorry if this is a dumb question, but i'm a bit stressed out after that.

The project is a classic Office add in dll and not one of the new 'apps' Microsoft introduced in this Office version. And you are right, as i want to keep it as a dll.

Now i solved my problem this way, that i use some unmanaged Code with interfaces and so on (Oleviewer helped a lot) to get the InlineResponse event.

Thanks for your answers here.
