hi everybody,
i got the following code in my adxolform: 

Outlook.MailItem mi = (Outlook.MailItem)((Outlook.Application)OutlookAppObj).CreateItem(Outlook.OlItemType.olMailItem);
mi.To = "donald@duck.com";
mi.Display(true);


what happens is that after pressing the "send and close" button in the window the message will be sent but the inspector stays open - i will have to close it manually once more.

any tips anybody???

thanx

ron

Hi Ron.

You should use the 'false' parameter in the 'Display' method.

thanx sergey,

this indeed solves the problem but leads to another:
i wish the window to be modal because i do NOT want to allow the user to do other things in outlook until the current mail has been sent.

more ideas from your side?

regards

ron

Ronald, I don't have another solution now. The fact is that Outlook works incorrectly if you open a new mail item in a modal inspector. I am afraid it can't be fixed. But I will send you a solution if I find it.
