I've to create a com addin for outlook. Have read most common articles and decided to try ATL COM variant. Unfortunately, I'm absolutely new to this thing.. so I get stuck on the easiest step:

Afaik, the only thing needed for is to fix reg. script according to my needs. OK. Registry is updated and contains all the necessary information in ..\Addins\<whatever_my_addin_is_called>
But still no COM Add-ins are present in appropriate Outlook menu.

The same happened when I tried to create MFC-dll. Registry is aware of my Add-In, Outlook refuses to work with.

The only .dll that is visible to _that_weird_application_ is the one provided by Microsoft as an example of COM addin, which is of no use to me at the moment..

I'm really confused... Any help would be much appreciated..
