VB.NET and Outlook 2000 - adding members to Recipients collection hangs

[Elliot M. Rodriguez]

I'm attempting to use automation with Outlook 2000 (version 9 object
library) via VB.Net.

In trying to add receipients to my MailItem's Recipients collection, my code
simply hangs. It does not throw an error. I am able to set other properties
of the object prior to the call, and I am lost as to why this one in
particular just fails.

My project contains the proper references to Interop.Outlook . Can anyone
please help?

objOutlook = New Outlook.Application

objOutlook.Session.Logon(Me.ProfileName)

objMailItem = objOutlook.CreateItem(Outlook.OlItemType.olMailItem)

objAttachment = objMailItem.Attachments.Add(filepath)

objRecip = objMailItem.Recipients.Add(Recipient) 'hangs here.

objRecip.Type = 1



thanks in advance for your help.

on the recipients call.
