It is not possible to force Outlook to reread the registry, nor is there any
other way to do what you're proposing unless you want to try a kludgy
SendKeys operation.
In the future, please post Outlook code questions in the forum at

Hi,
Outlook version 2007
VS2008
Using VSTO and Redemption
I need to change the following settings at runtime
Mark items as read when viewed in the Reading Pane
Wait [ ] seconds before marking the item as read.
Mark item as read when selection changes.
All the above settings are on a form found he
Tools -- Options -- Other -- Reading Pane
The registry settings are stored in
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\O utlook\Preferences]
I know how to change the registry settings but I don't know to re-load these
settings again without closing outlook and re-openning it again (which I
don't want to do).
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I've been stuck on this for a
lo......ng time.
Thanks
