Word "SendMail" crashes Outlook Inspector (2007)

[Dave Taylor]

I'm referring to the sample code download "OutlookRibbonXCS_VSTO". When I
have Outlook 2007 running with this AddIn, and I send a document as an
attachement from Word 2007, the Inspector from for that email does not close
down properly. The ribbon locks, and a 'hidden' Send button appears on the
far left of the ribbon. I then have to close the inspector down manually
(though the email does get sent okay).

Any ideas what may be causing this? I think it's down to the 'NewInspector'
event handler in the AddIn code; when I comment that out the problem
disappears. I'm thinking the Word email is not being added to the Outlook
inspectors collection in the same way as doing it directly from Outlook
(which works fine) - but that's as far as my knowlege goes.

I have Office 2007 SP1, VS2005 and VSTO SE.

Thanks!

Could it be the same issue discussed here: http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=3263504&SiteID=1 If so, chime in on that discussion?

Thanks Sue, I did see that one but wasn't sure it was the same problem. The
OP replied to his own post saying that it's a known bug and won't be fixed
until Office 14 - is this correct?

I have no information beyond whats in that discussion thread. That's why I suggested that you post on that discussion if you want more information.
