Word Event does not return values in parameters

[tsract]

I'm using ATL and c++ to develop an Add-in for Microsoft Word. The problem
that I'm having is that the parameters for the events that I'm trying to
capture aren't being filled with data. They're essentially null. The
problem is only happening with events that pass back more than one parameter.

The events that I am trapping are DocumentOpen, NewDocument,
DocumentBeforePrint, and DocumentBeforeSave

DocumentOpen, and NewDocument event trapping work fine.

The dispinterface is ApplicationEvents2; I've also tried using
ApplicationEvents3, and ApplicationEvents4 with the same results.

void DocumentBeforeSave(
[in] Document* Doc,
[in] VARIANT_BOOL* SaveAsUI,
[in] VARIANT_BOOL* Cancel);
