Hi,
I have what seems to be a strange problem. Firstly i created a add-in in
vs.net that adds new tasks for a user from a project management app. In order
to view custom data from the external app i've created a custom form. This
form contains basically a ActiveX control (written in .NET C#). When the
item(s) are
added, the message class is set to this custom form. The problem i'm seeing
is
that immediately after my add-in loads the tasks, and i click open a task,
the default form shows up instead of custom form. Now If i close my outlook
app (not just the item) and start it up again and then open the same task
item, i get the task in my custom form.
To work around i create a outlook template file of my custom form. i then
add items by using the createitemfromtemplate function. After adding the
ActiveAllowOneOffForms with DWORD set to 1. i get everything working smoothly.
Why is outlook not loading the custom form for the first time. i would like
to avoid the registry entry.
Anybody seen this issue before.
thanks
