RE: ANN: OutlookVim - Vim installer did not register OLE on Windows

[David Fishburn]

Good Morning Russ.

What installer did you run to install Vim?

The VB code running is doing this:
Set Vim = CreateObject("Vim.Application")

If your Vim is echoing "1" here:
> :echo has('ole')
> I run the command it does indeed echo 1.

Then your Vim has OLE enabled, but my best guess is the installer did not
register the OLE interface correctly.


I opened up regedit and did a quick search for "Vim.Application" and found
the following:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\Vim.Application

That has a few more references including a Vim.Application.1 and other
references to it's CLSID.

Hi,

I am trying to use this but, when i click my button i created in Outlook, i
keep getting:

OutlookVim: Could not create a Vim OLE object please ensure Vim has been
installed.
Inside Vim run this command; it should echo 1.
:echo has('ole')


I run the command it does indeed echo 1.

I am using Outlook 2007, and am using Vim (64 bit) on windows.

Any ideas?

Thanks,


Russ

Could you try running the 32-bit installer (as a test) and see if you
get different behaviour.

Thanks,

Can the two versions co-exist on the same machine?
