Modal form is not properly working on inspector

[nitwalke]

Hi all,

I have created an outlook addin and added toolbar on an inspector ope
event in inspector.
When user click on a button on toolbar, new modal form gets opened o
top of inspector .
If user clicks on send button of inspector and closes the model for
then send email event of inspector gets fired.
How can I make it completely model , inspectors event should no
execute if user has clicked on button while model window was opened?

Regards,
Niti

What version of Outlook, what language and development platform are you
using?

How are you opening the form?

If a form is opened modally the Inspector should not be responsive until the
form is dismissed if you are doing things correctly.

It works for outlook2007.It also works for outlook2003 when mail forma
is 'Microsoft Office Word 2003 to Rich Text email Messages' but when w
use mail format as 'Microsoft Office Word 2003 and edit e-mai
messages.' it doesn't work.

I have developed addin in C#.
form is opened using form.showDialog() method.This method mad
inspector as modal.

What do you mean by "This method made inspector as modal." ?

You aren't displaying the Inspector using Display() with the modal argument
are you?

You might need to get the window handle of the Inspector and supply an
IOLKWindow class object that returns that handle and supply that as the
owner of the modal form. I've often had to do that, especially with WordMail
Inspectors.

Post whatever you're going to post here.

Here is code.
//form object is windows form

OutlookWindow32 inspectorIWin32Window = ne
OutlookWindow32((Object)_mailItem.GetInspector, true);

form.ShowDialog(inspectorIWin32Window );

But I get another problem.

I have added a ContextMenuStrip on a form. When user click o
contextMenu,, menu appears but form get minimised. This is happene
after adding above code. Can I get any suggestion?

What you set up it just as good and will work as well.

I don't know what a ContextMenuStrip is or why the form it's on would appear
minimized.
