outlook add-in event handler doesn't work

[derhackler]

hi! i try to devolop an add-in for outlook xp which uses the SelectionChange event. If you select a contact the eventhandler adds or removes a command bar control. so far it works fine. but if you click the new button the supposed action works fine, but afterwards no event works anymore. you would have to restart the application to make it work again. any ideas what might be wrong and how i can solve the problem. (i'm using the pi's from microsoft) thanks in advance benedikt

Hi Maybe the event resets after one use???? Try initializing it again when dealing with the event. Hope it works :) Give them a chance! Do it for the kittens, dear God, the kittens!
