    <p>I want to create an IE extension - a <strong>sidebar</strong> ("Explorer bar") looking just like bookmarks/favourites sidebar in IE9, it is supposed to show HTML webpage in it.</p> <p>I googled for a few hours, read some:</p> <ul> <li><a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb776819.aspx" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb776819.aspx</a> (yikes!),</li> <li><a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa753587.aspx" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa753587.aspx</a>,</li> <li><a href="http://www.codeproject.com/KB/shell/Attach_BHO_with_C_.aspx" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://www.codeproject.com/KB/shell/Attach_BHO_with_C_.aspx</a> </li> </ul> <p>and</p> <ul> <li><a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5643819/developing-internet-explorer-extensions/5740004">How to get started with developing Internet Explorer extensions?</a></li> </ul> <p>but I need a sidebar - no windows or message boxes. I'd like to see a simple, basic solution - I'll do the details later.</p> <p>I've created an extension for FF and Chrome - their Extension Dev Centers are much better than Microsoft's.</p> <p>Please, tell me what should I do in simple steps. I want to create the IE extension in Visual Studio 2010 and C#. There's no way I'll create it in C++.</p> <p><strong>EDIT (2011-10-20):</strong></p> <p>I've managed to accomplish the solution in <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/5643819/developing-internet-explorer-extensions/5740004">How to get started with developing Internet Explorer extensions?</a> but:</p> <ol> <li>it does not work correctly: the set word does not get highlighted at all,</li> <li>I think that the problem is that I use IE9 not 8,</li> <li>the solution does not tell me how to create a <strong>sidebar</strong> for IE9. </li> </ol> <p>BTW. I Use Visual Studio 2010 Express (Visual C# 2010 Express) - not Professional or Ultimate - I think there's no Start External Program option in Debug tab of the Project.</p> <p>PLEASE help.</p>
