Outlook Add-In with HTMLHelpViewer hangs on registering ActiveX Server

Hi,

I developed an Outlook Add-In with Add-In Express for VCL 2010 and I'm working with Delphi 2007.
The Add-In worked fine. I now wanted to change my help-component to Embrarcaderos HTMLHelpViewer. After changing the component CodeGear hangs on registering ActiveX Server.
It seems to be the same problem as in the following topic:
http://www.add-in-express.com/forum/read.php?FID=1&TID=3590&MID=17129#message17129

Do you know the reason now or do you have got experience with any workarounds or solutions I might work with?

If for any reason the combination of Outlook Add-In and HTMLHelpViewer doesn't work, can you recommend a 3rd party component?

Regards,
Maja

Hi Maja,

Unfortunately, we don't have any experience with the HTMLHelpViewer component.
But it is possible to define if the issue deals with HTMLHelpViewer or Add-in Express.
Please exclude the unit which contains HTMLHelpViewer, and try to run your Addin.
If it works fine, the problem is not with Add-in Express.
Your Addin that is built with the help of Add-in Express compiles in DLL. There may be problems, too.
As well you can try to debug HTMLHelpViewer using Windows Application.
