Remarks

A form region manifest is a collection of properties that describe how the form region appears in Outlook. For example, you can specify whether the form region should appear in the Reading Pane of an Outlook item, or provide the title that you would like to appear in the Actions menu or Choose Form dialog box when users select a replacement or replace-all form region in Outlook.

You can set these properties at design time in the Properties window, or at run time before Outlook retrieves the form region manifest from the Outlook add-in.
