[Quoted Text] > Hi,
>
> I've developed a COM addin for Outllook (using VB6) which places a new
> command bar button into the Standard toolbar. The button is created
> for each inspector window at the point it is opened. The button needs
> to have both an icon and text but I'm having trouble setting the icon.
>
> Sample code executed when the inspector loads:
>
> ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
> Set moButton =
> moInspector.CommandBars.Item("Standard").Controls.Add(msoControlButton,
> , , , True)
>
> moButton.Caption = BUTTON_CAPTION_EMAIL
> moButton.ToolTipText = BUTTON_TOOLTIP_EMAIL
> moButton.Style = msoButtonIconAndCaption
> moButton.Picture = VB.LoadResPicture(101, 0)
> ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> The last line of code fails and Outlook raises the following error:
>
> -2147418113 - Catastrophic failure
>
> The button displays and functions OK but without the intended icon.
>
> Interestingly the same error occurs if I try to read the Picture
> property into an object variable also. It seems any attempt to access
> this property (read or write) causes the error.
>
> Any ideas greatly appreciated.
>
> Thanks
