Hi

I have built my application with buttons on both an CommandBar and InspectorCommandBar for Outlook the toolbars are working fine installing and uninstalling correctly and the buttons appear. But if I change the caption for the buttons or the icon and rebuild the project the button changes do not occur.

I have the buttons are Enabled= TRUE, Visible = TRUE, Temporary = FALSE, Style = AdxMSoButtonIconAndCaption, State = adxMsoButtonUp and the images comming from an ImageList.

I have uninstaled and rebuilt but cannot get the changes to appear.

Is there anything I am missing.

I have just added a new button to the AdxCommandBar1 as the first will not display and the 2nd works fine. But the buttons now have stopped working on the AdxOlInspectorCommandBar1. After rebuilding again the new button on AdxCommandBar1 has stopped working. So the buttons work the first time the project is built then stop working.

Kind of got a work around:

Install program using right click in .net and selecting install and buttons appear.

Uninstall using Add/Remove programs works fine

Install program using right click in .net and selecting install and buttons do not appear.

If I then remove add-in in Outlook and the uninstall using Add/Remove programs the uninstall works fine but a re-install then makes the buttons appear again.

Is it normal to have to manually remove the add-in in Outlook before doing the install ? I have the add-in selected under Uninstall under custom actions.

Matt,
When you set the Temporare property of AdxCommandBar to True you should set to True all controls in this command bar. The Temporare property of control can be set to False or True when a command bar is Temporary False.

Yes, it is desirable. This behavior of Add-in Express .NET concerns Outlook only.
