In a Citrix environment Win 2003 Office 2003 some of our users experience
this error when our .Net application tries to use the Outlook Automation
objects.

Outlook.Application outlookApp = new Outlook.Application ();
Outlook.MailItem message =
(Outlook.MailItem)outlookApp.CreateItem(Outlook.OlItemType.olMailItem);

The CreateItem call causes the problem:
System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x84130003): The operation
failed.
at
Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.ApplicationClass.CreateItem(OlItemType
ItemType)

I can't find any reference to this error or anything similar so I'm
basically stuck, any clues? Like I said, only some users have the problem so
it might be something to do with their Profile, outlook setup etc.

Thanks
Ian
