Cancelling Outlook.Application.ActiveExplorer.Close event?
Nathan 9/8/2006 5:48:01 PM
Hello,

I have written an Outlook Add-in in C# for Outlook 2003.
I have added a delegate/event handler for the
Outlook.Application.ActiveExplorer.Close event.
With in the event procedure, I am doing a check for a flag, if the flag is
set to true, I want to cancel the closing event and popup a message box to
the user and leave the outlook window active.

How do I do this?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

The Explorer.Close event cannot be canceled. If you get that event and open
a new Explorer that might work but I'm sure it would tick off users trying
to close Outlook. I'd uninstall an application that did that to me.
