Remarks
Because Outlook can load more than one add-in and each add-in can contain multiple form regions, you should ensure that the Name property of the FormRegionNameAttribute class is set to a unique name to avoid a name collision.
When you add an Outlook Form Region item to the project, Visual Studio automatically adds this attribute to the form region factory class in the form region code file. It sets the name of the attribute to the add-in name plus the form region item, separated by a dot—for example, "OutlookAddIn1.FormRegion1".
Thread Safety
Any public static (Shared in Visual Basic) members of this type are thread safe. Any instance members are not guaranteed to be thread safe.
