About AxHost Yael 5/30/2007 7:31:01 AM Hi, I have a problem, this code don't work in every computer: I'm using this for display a bitmap in the add-in button: public class MatarotHost : AxHost { public MatarotHost() : base( "02FD5840-C1A3-448E-8310-98611DF58281"){ } public static stdole.IPictureDisp IPictureDisp(System.Drawing.Image Image) { return ((stdole.IPictureDisp)(AxHost.GetIPictureDispFromPicture(Image))); } this.toolbarBtn.Style = MsoButtonStyle.msoButtonIconAndCaption; // set pic to this toolbarBtn string ns = this.GetType().Namespace; Assembly CurrentAssembly = this.GetType().Assembly; System.IO.Stream imgStreamPic = CurrentAssembly.GetManifestResourceStream(ns+"." + "matarotqm.bmp"); stdole.IPictureDisp Pic = MatarotHost.IPictureDisp(Image.FromStream(imgStreamPic)); this.toolbarBtnWeb.Picture = Pic; Why it's not working on every computer??? Thank's, Yael

Re: About AxHost "Dmitry Streblechenko" <dmitry[ at ]dimastr.com> 5/30/2007 4:57:19 PM Does not work as in "an exception is raised"? Or as in "no errors, but nothing happens"? Is it running on Outlook 2003 or higher? Outlook 2002 or below do not expose the CommandBarBurton.Picture property.

Re: About AxHost Yael 5/30/2007 5:57:01 PM Outlook 2003. in some computer I can see my add-in button bmp, and in one of this computer I can't see my button add-in with no errors, but nothing happens - I just not see this button. Do you have any suggestion ? This works on the majority of desktops less one computetr. I think The problem is with this method: When I'm remaring this method, and set button style add-in just cuption with no icon, I can see add-in button. public IPictureDisp GetIPictureDispOfPicture(Image image) { return (IPictureDisp)MatarotHost.GetIPictureDispFromPicture(image); } And why I don't have this option in AxHost ? AxHost.GetIPictureDispFromPicture(image); I have only MatarotHost.GetIPictureDispFromPicture(image); I tried all these: // public static new stdole.IPictureDisp GetIPictureDispFromPicture(System.Drawing.Image image) // { // return (stdole.IPictureDisp)MatarotHost.GetIPictureDispFromPicture(image); // } // public IPictureDisp GetIPictureDispOfPicture(Image image) // { // return (IPictureDisp)MatarotHost.GetIPictureDispFromPicture(image); // } // public static stdole.IPictureDisp ImageToIpicture(System.Drawing.Image image) // { // return (stdole.IPictureDisp)MatarotHost.GetIPictureDispFromPicture(image); // } Thank you.

Re: About AxHost Yael 5/31/2007 1:21:11 PM Hi, I funded the problem: Add-in runing only on computer having a VS.NET If the Visual Studio is not installed I don't get my com add-in because of public class MatarotHost : AxHost Why? Or if I don't add this class, It's running good. Thank's, Yael. public class MatarotHost : AxHost { public MatarotHost() : base( "02FD5840-C1A3-448E-8310-98611DF58281"){ } public static stdole.IPictureDisp IPictureDisp(System.Drawing.Image Image) { return ((stdole.IPictureDisp)(AxHost.GetIPictureDispFromPicture(Image))); } "Dmitry Streblechenko" wrote: [Quoted Text] > Does not work as in "an exception is raised"?

Re: About AxHost Yael 5/31/2007 1:39:02 PM Yes, I think this is my problem: "This code won't even compile, as it will see the MyHost declaration, thinking it is a constructor, and then realizing it is in a MatarotHost class declaration, will yield an error. The GetIPictureDispFromPicture is a protected method, so it is only exposed internally to classes that derive from AxHost." How could I Show icon on a commandBarButton? without this method? Using vs.net 2003 & outlook 2003 What is derived classs?

Re: About AxHost "Dmitry Streblechenko" <dmitry[ at ]dimastr.com> 5/31/2007 5:20:14 PM This is really a C++ question, not Outlook. Try to post in a VS newsgroup.

Re: About AxHost "Ken Slovak - [MVP - Outlook]" <kenslovak[ at ]mvps.org> 6/1/2007 1:19:55 PM I don't know. I've never had a problem with using AxHost in my code and deploying to computers where VS was never installed. I do use a different GUID than you're using, I have no idea if that makes any difference. I agree with Dmitry, at this point it's a .NET/Interop problem and nothing to do with Outlook. You might have more luck in a general .NET group for C# where there may be people more knowledgeable about AxHost and its ins and outs. -- Ken Slovak [MVP - Outlook] http://www.slovaktech.com Author: Absolute Beginner's Guide to Microsoft Office Outlook 2003 Reminder Manager, Extended Reminders, Attachment Options http://www.slovaktech.com/products.htm "Yael" <Yael[ at ]discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:A0A98D91-010B-4057-A240-7ADAAE028C20[ at ]microsoft.com...
