 Outlook Plugin - 2000 and 2002?

I have developed an Outlook plugin that works with Outlook 2002.  In VB, I
add a project reference to "Microsoft Outlook 10.0 Object Library."  The
problem I'm having is that I need the plugin to work for Outlook 2000 as
well.

Do I need to develop a separate plugin for Outlook 2000?  Is it possible to
develop a plugin that works with both versions if I reference the Outlook
2000 Object Library?  Do I have to install Outlook 2000 to reference that
library?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

You need to develop your add-in using the lowest version of Outlook you are
planning to support. If you reference"Microsoft Outlook 9.0 Object Library"
your addin will work just fine in Outlook 2000 and as well as 2002.

Yes, you need to have Outlook 2000 installed.

That makes sense. To reference the 9.0 Object Library, do I need to

uninstall Outlook 2002 and install Outlook 2000, or is there an easier way?
