Hi Jigar,

Hi Jigar,

Oh, now I understand. That problem was fixed in July. I'd recommend to install the latest build, see the Downloads section of the web site.

Hi Andrei,
Thanks for the response. I have upgraded to the latest build.
I am having another problem with Outlook add-in.
When we try to display custom form by first switching to outbox folder and then current folder using following line of code,

Explorer.GetType().InvokeMember("SelectFolder", BindingFlags.InvokeMethod, Nothing, Explorer, New Object() {Folder})

we get following exception

System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException: Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation. ---> System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x80020005): Type mismatch. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80020005 (DISP_E_TYPEMISMATCH))

And strangely this happens only on a system with Vista OS and Outlook 2007 with2 other add-ons installed namely Business Contacts Manager and GoToMeeting

On other systems it is working fine.

Please let me know if there is any solution to this problem.

Hi Jigar,

Please see the following sample http://www.add-in-express.com/support/addin-c-sharp.php#form-regions.

If however, you need to switch to the Outbox (I don't understand why, however), then try disabling those add-ins. if the error persists, please let me know.

Hi Andrei,

We were using outbox folder technique to refresh the view as described in SwitchingWebViewPaneVs2005cs demo project.
In our add-in, ADXOlFormsCollectionItem 's ExplorerLayout property is set to "WebViewPane" - so we thought we have to use outbox technique to refresh the view when the user switches between custom form and normal outlook view.

In the example you gave above, the ExplorerLayour is BottomSubPane and the form's visibility is controlled by show and hide methods. I m not sure if that approach will work with WebViewPane also. Let me know if there is any other way out.

Regards,
Jigar

Hi Jigar,

Could you please create a simple add-in with one CommandBar button, test your code 

Explorer.GetType().InvokeMember("SelectFolder", BindingFlags.InvokeMethod, Nothing, Explorer, New Object() {Folder})


by clicking on this button in Vista/Office 2007 and let me know about the result?

Hi Fedor,

It does work then.

Here is what we are doing to give you a better idea.

1. On Initialize event we create a new folder within Inbox or get the EntryID of that folder if it already exists.
2. Then whenever the user clicks on our button, we first set our folder as current folder by using following code:

Dim activeExplorer As Outlook.Explorer = OutlookApp.ActiveExplorer()
Dim mapiNameSpace As Outlook.NameSpace = OutlookApp.GetNamespace("MAPI")
Dim ourFolder As Outlook.MAPIFolder = Nothing
Try
If Not String.IsNullOrEmpty(OurFolderId) Then
ourFolder = mapiNameSpace.GetFolderFromID(OurFolderId)
If ourFolder IsNot Nothing Then
SetExplorerFolder(activeExplorer, ourFolder )
System.Windows.Forms.Application.DoEvents()
End If
End If
Finally
If mapiNameSpace IsNot Nothing Then
Marshal.ReleaseComObject(mapiNameSpace)
End If
If ourFolder IsNot Nothing Then
Marshal.ReleaseComObject(ourFolder )
End If
If activeExplorer IsNot Nothing Then
Marshal.ReleaseComObject(activeExplorer)
End If
End Try

3. Then we call the following code. Here RefreshCurrentFolder() is same as in SwitchingWebViewPaneVs2005cs demo

AdxOlFormsCollectionItem2.FolderName = GetFullNameOfCurrentFolder()
RefreshCurrentFolder()

4. We get the error in RefreshCurrentFolder() when a call to SetExplorerFolder() is made

If we skip the step 2, we do not get error. But step 2 works fine in most systems.

Hi Jigar,

Could you please disable the Business Contacts Manager and GoToMeeting add-ins and let me know does if the exception appears?

Could you please sent the sample add-in with the same issue to our support email so that we can reproduce and research the issue?
