Crash when using GetInspector

T

technomane

Hello all,
hope you can help me with my problem here. The following code crashe
at line "Set myInspector = myItemb.GetInspector" (Outlook completel
crashes and needs to restart). I have no idea why this happens. Fro
what I've tried, it only crashes when the macro is started right afte
OL startup, while no inspector item was yet launched. When I click o
e.g. "New E-Mail" first (open/close the inspector), it will not crash.

Purpose of the whole thing is to add a user-defined command bar t
every new inspector item (like you would do via "customize" -> "comman
bars" -> "macros" menu)

Any help is highly appreciated

Sub DisplayFollowUpBarMenus()
Dim myOlApp As Outlook.Application
Dim myItemb As Outlook.MailItem
Dim myInspector As Outlook.Inspector
Dim cmb As CommandBar
Dim insp As Inspector

Set myOlApp = Nothing
Set myItemb = Nothing
Set myInspector = Nothing
Set myOlApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
Set myItemb = myOlApp.CreateItem(olMailItem)
Set myInspector = myItemb.GetInspector

For Each cmb In myInspector.CommandBars
If cmb.Name = "Followup" Then cmb.Delete
Next
Set cb = myInspector.CommandBars.Add(Name:=Followup, _
temporary:=False, Position:=msoBarTop)
cb.Visible = True
Set cbc = cb.Controls.Add(Type:=msoControlButton)
With cbc
.FaceId = 273
.Caption = "morgen"
.Style = msoButtonIconAndCaption
.OnAction = "FUtomorrow"
End With
Set cbc = cb.Controls.Add(Type:=msoControlButton)
With cbc
.FaceId = 273
.Caption = "5"
.OnAction = "FUfivedays"
.Style = msoButtonIconAndCaption
.BeginGroup = True
End With

myInspector.Display
myInspector.Close (olDiscard)
End Su

If the purpose is only to create the commandbar, use the NewInspector event.

And if the code runs within Outlook, don't call GetObject or CreateObject,
instead use the instrinsic Application object.
