Hi,

I am trying to access the COM-model of Outlook in an extension-dll, written
in C++.

I tried to call CoInitialize in dllMain but it didn't succed. Ignoring this
was O.K. since I run this extension-dll under Win-NT 4.0. But when testing
under Windows2000 I saw, that CreateDispatch failed.

Has anyone an idea how to access COM in an extension?? (I mean NOT an
COM-Addin, but an extension-dll!! )

Is it generally possible?

Should I maybe call CoInitialize at
IExchExt* CALLBACK ExchEntryPoint()

Markus
