How to debug an Outlook addin

[j252ewv]

Help!

I have been given a vb6 codebase for an outlook addin and have to make some changes to it, can anyone tell me how to get the source code to run from outlook in order that i may debug and test the add-in, I have set the start up property to be outlook in the vbp properties debugging window but it appears outlook is still running the compiled codebase.

I've never tried it with VB6 & Outlook but I would suspect it to be something like:

Unregister the compiled dll, close Outlook, start vb6 app in debug mode, re-open Outlook, register the running vb6 app as an add-in and you should then be able to debug.

Presumably someone will be able to tell you/me whether this is feasible.
