I'm new to development in Microsoft Office AddIns.
I created one Outlook Web AddIn with javascript/html/css.
Is it possible to create one Outlook VSTO AddIn, with a button for example, that opens the Web AddIn?
No, it is not possible. OfficeJS or VSTO (nor the Outlook extensibility model) doesn't provide any API for that.
No, you cannot do that. The best you can do is figure out from a VSTO addin if a particular JS addin is installed; but you cannot do anything with it.

I am developing Office addin for Outlook. Although I submitted my app to Office Store, the app was rejected because the behavior of my app was weird if users' Outlook version is 2013. Actually, fixing the problem to support Outlook 2013 is NOT reasonable, so I would like to submit my app to the store without supporting Outlook 2013. Is there any way to "unsupport" Outlook 2013?
You just need to change minimum support version
I have already created an addin for Ms Outlook in Windows using visual studio 2010 and C#. It works fine with Ms Outlook 2007,2010,2013 and 2016 on Windows.
Now I would like to create the same addin for Outlook on Mac. I have downloaded a .pkg file of Outlook for Mac and have installed it. For activating It needs a Office 365 subscription and I have subscribed a one month free trial period.
Now to build the addin, I have surfed the internet.But I have not found any proper post related to this topic. Please help.
.NET/COM add-ins built with Visual Studio do not work on Outlook for Mac. Only the new web Outlook Add-ins (using JavaScript + HTML5 + CSS) will work. See: https://dev.office.com/docs/add-ins/overview/office-add-ins
Outlook for Mac does not support plug-ins as #Eric said. you could use office 365 apps(Office Add-ins ) or There are ways to add limited functionality to Outlook via AppleScript.
I am wondering when i create my 365 mail app for outlook, will this work with Outlook 2010 and 2007? if so is there an obvious limitation?
Thankyou
No, Office Apps can work in Outlook 2013 and later versions. See Mail apps for Outlook for more information.
I have a Outlook Add-In that is working in Outlook 2007, but it is not working in Outlook 2010.
Basically, the Add-in has a button in the toolbar, and a Custom Property Page, and when the button is clicked All the Information related to that Email is captured.
But in Outlook 2010, that button itself is not coming up, neither is the Custom Property page, is it possible to make that Add-in working ??
Thanks,

How do you add the button in Outlook 2007?
If you use the old CommandBars in Outlook 2010 or 2013, your button will be on the Addins Ribbon.
I have an Outlook Add-in that I have developed for Outlook 2007. I am working on having this add-in work on Outlook 2010 as well. My add-in is an adjoining region on the appointment/meeting request window that displays a WPF control. The add-in installs fine on Outlook 2010 but when I go to the appointment/meeting request window I have a blank adjoining region. Any thoughts on what is preventing my WPF control from showing in Outlook 2010?
Thanks
