Updating Outlook CommandBars after editing

Hi!

When i try to create PlugIns for Outlook and create a ExplorerCommandBar and add Controls to it, the Bar will be showed after starting Outlook (and Building the Release at VS.NET)

But if i add or remove Controls (or change them) the modifications are not made if i start Outlook again (and after Building the Add-In)

If i remove the Add-In from the Outlook Bar i get an Error at Ending Outlook and after starting Outlook the CommandBar is empty. At this time there is no additional Code which can make problems.

Any ideas?


Regards

Matthias,

Have you made your command bar temporary?

Hi

As far as I undestand you are creating an absolutely new add-in, aren't you?

You are right Sergey.

I created a new Add-In. Added three Controls to them, build it, started Outlook - worked fine.

Then i added a new Button, build it, started Outlook - worked fine.

Then i removed a Control (the third), build it, started Outlook - still the same as the run before, Control was not removed

Added a new Control, build it, started Outlook - again the same, third control wasn't removed, new control wasn't added

I trie that with the avaible demosource, same... can't add new Controls to the ControlBar.

Then i changed every UpdateCounter, but no look with that again.

Matthias,

I have found out the cause of the error may be in the following: probably your command bar contains none temporary popup controls which in their turn contain temporary controls. Please check it.

Hi!

Yes, i don't use any popup controls.

Just one EditBox, one ComboBox and one Button.

I will check that later and report.

Matthias,

we are going to publish the new ADX version.
I think it will be done on next week. I advice you to wait for some days and check it on the new version.
