I am creating an outlook addin in vb.

I want to do the following:

when the user is in the "Messages" view  (you retrieve this from the
Outlook.ActiveExplorer.CurrentView), I want to be able to tell what text in
the Message window (where a particular message is displayed) is highlighted.

Could anyone tell me how I can go around by doing this,

I would imagine that I need to know what category the message text box (or
whatever control it is) would fall under.

Thanks a lot,

Joshua
