AddIns and OffXP and WinXP... doesn't Work....

[Falconetti Daniel]

Hello,

I've develooped a Comm AddIn using Redemption (commercial version ;-)) with
VB6 that work well with W2K and O2K.
I used the example given by Randy
It work well with W2K and Off XP

I've got a problem on some WINXP + OffXP The addins appear in the COM menu
of Outlook XP but when I check it and click Ok it's unchecked immediately.
The only time I make it work is when I launch the source code from VB6 and
then start Outlook all work as expected!
I don't get any errors during debugging...
Some times in Outlook it says that the Add Ins as been de activated due to a
run time error! But I don't get any infos on that...

I've tried everything I could think about with no results

Any one who's got an idea?

Running a script stopper, like the ones from Symantec or McAfee? Those
can do that. If you are, see if disabling the script stopper helps.

Thanks for your answer.
Well I've checked and found nothing like that.
I just noticed the SMS agents thats all!

I really wonder what's going on.

Do you see any related errors in the Windows event logs in either the
System or Applications logs? Script stoppers from a software firewall
like ZoneAlarm could also be the problem.

If you look in the registry I assume the LoadBehavior key is set to 0.
Does manually setting it to 3 before you start Outlook help at all?

Well, there is no error message in the event log.
The Load behavior in the registry is 3
When I manually check, click Ok and open again ComAddins dialog box it is
unchecked.
If I look at the registry under HKCU.... It's still loadbehavior 3.

The only thing I noticed is the use of profgen in the logging script to
generate script if it doesn't exist. Profgen make an error. I'm going to
investigate it.

Thanks for your help

Also check in Help, About Microsoft Outlook, Disabled Items. If it's
listed there see if highlighting it and clicking on Enable then
exiting and restarting Outlook helps.
