Outlook - Outlook addin not loading
Asked By TheCommedia
30-Jul-08 11:47 AM
Hi, I'm writing a managed Outlook Addin and I've shimmed it using COM Shim
Wizard Version 2. My problem is that the Addin is not loading (OnConnection
is not firing) probably because a dependency issue.
Is there a way to check why an add-in is not loading and get a clue about
which dependency is the cause of the problem?
Many Thanks!

You want to look at the Fusion logs, that's the managed code loader. See
this article for managed code debugging:

Depending on which version of the shim wizard you're using (and if they've
released an update), make sure you follow all the messages on Andrew
Whitechapel's blog about the shim wizard.
Some versions have a bug in their post-build events where the debug output
is mixed in with the release output in the build event script. That's in
either the ManagedAggregrator or shim or both projects.
In addition it's important to check in your setup project and make sure that
the ManagedAggregrator and addin dll outputs are set to not be COM
registered and that the shim output is COM registered. That was another bug
in some versions of the shim wizard or its instructions.

Ken,
Thanks for your reply, it was very usefull, I didn't know about Fusion Logs.
I was aware about the "bugs" of the shim wizard and how to configure the COM
registration in the setup project.
The link to VSOD Support Team has a bunch of information, very interesting!
Many thanks!

Saving attachments to folder from public folder Outlook Hey there! I am currently working on a project that involves merging data from many into one Excel workbook for analysis. The csv files are sent to a public folder (outlook: \ Public Folders \ All Public Folders \ etc. . .) I thought the easiest way to do this would be to import the data straight from Outlook to the Excel file but after much painful testing I could not get it to main mailbox folders, not public and am unsure why. . . I have almost no experience with Outlook coding so any help is appreciated! This is the current code: If there is a instead of using a selection, that is fine too! Public Sub SaveAttachments() Dim objOL As Outlook.Application Dim objMsg As Outlook.MailItem 'Object Dim objAttachments As Outlook.Attachments Dim objSelection As Outlook.Selection Dim i As Long Dim lngCount As Long Dim strFile As String Dim strFolderpath

Looking for good email program? Outlook Hi forum members, This is the first time I have posted at this forum, and to an excellent internet / web based email. With Microsoft, it appears I have two choices, Outlook, or Outlook Express. Up front I am stating, not interested in all the bells and whistles that that exists, whether it is free, or, I have to pay for it. So, between Outlook and Outlook Express, what are the pros and cons about one versus the other? Please do not about the stuff I have stated I am not interested in. Simply want to compare Outlook vs Outlook Express's email program and how either will serve me best. My needs: 1 - I do not waste anybody's time with stuff that is not relevant to my question. Outlook or Outlook Express? For EMAIL PURPOSES. One or the other, Why vs Why Not? After
