WebViewPane example crashing
Example #15 crashes on form load

Hi I was trying to implement a webview pane and grabbed the .NET/C# example 15. Upon building and running the example, the system crashes deep in the bowels of the kernel.dll (outlook.exe process) when it tries to display the form. I can see that the "shell" of the form displays, then the crash. Is this a known bug? If so, are the other examples of how to implement a web pane view? I see the basic "behind the scenes" folder switcheroo technique used.

On another subject, I'm not sure when to use Marshal.ReleaseComObject. (When getting the app object etc). Any documentation on this?

thanks

Hi Murray,

What version and build number of Add-in Express do you use?

Hi Eugene,

Thanks for the documentation on com object refs. Much appreciated.

I'm using version 4.3 build 1910. Several of the dll's have the product version 4.3.935.2005 on them (i'm using vs 2005). has there been an update, or perhaps a fixed example? i downloaded the lastest one from the forum/examples page.

thanks!

Hi Murray,

>is there a recent bugfix?
No

I have just tested the layoutsvs2005cs.zip and layoutsvs2005cs.zip samples once again and they work fine in my Outlook 2007.
It's possible that you use a specific folder.

Could you please try to debug the sample and find a line that crashes Outlook?

Please specify, what is the name of the sample you use?
(layoutsvs2005cs.zip or layoutsvs2005cs.zip)
