What version of Outlook? If this is 2007 or later you can use a Custom Task
Pane. But that would be visible or not, it wouldn't slide.

You can use the Add-In Express framework to add additional panels to Outlook
2000 or later but I'm not sure about sliding, I don't think so.

Finally, you can do your own Win32 API hacking and do all the plumbing on
your own, seehttp://www.codeproject.com/KB/office/additional_panel_Outlook.aspxfor a
starter for that. This is pretty much what the Add-In Express people have
done already with their code framework, but if you do all the plumbing
yourself you can design things the way you want.
