See the question is Previously I had developed outlook com add-in using visual studio 2003..it worked fine. Now I am trying to implement a very basic com add-in that just trys to show a messagebox in the start event, using vsto 2005, the problem that I am facing is. The registry gets update when I create a com add-in, but outlook does not load the com. I can even see the com under com add-in dialog box but, again cannot select the com through the dialog box either. Outlook doesnt load the com even when I run it in the debug mode through vs 2005. I dont know whats happening,as I dont get any errors what so ever. one more thing, when creating an outlook add-in in vs 2005, the registry settings is updated under HKEY_CURRENT_USER, but outlook seems to be reponding to registry setting under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, which was the default for vs 2003 please help, its Urgent Thank you

Hi to All, I have been desperately trying to find a solution to this problem. Now the problem is, I am trying to build a simple outlook com add in vb.net. Every thing works fine but the moment I declare a mailitem object in goButton event, outlook stays in the memory. I have tried every thing to release the mail item object. but no matter what i do..outlook stays in the memory the code i have written so far is '''trying to release the objects Public Sub OnBeginShutdown(ByRef custom As System.Array) Implements Extensibility.IDTExtensibility2.OnBeginShutdown On Error Resume Next ' Notify the user you are shutting down, and delete the button. goButton.Delete() goButton = Nothing GC.Collect() GC.WaitForPendingFinalizers() MsgBox("Our custom Add-in is unloading.")
