OK, so I have looked through this listserv. I have read Randy Byrne's
article. I have tried using a shim. I have contacted Microsoft (have
a nice weekend, they tell me...sheesh!). I cannot find the answer to
save my life.
I am getting the runtime error message when I try to load a .NET
add-in. I modeled my add-in after Randy's (thanks for that, Randy)
odc_oladdin. I can get the addin to run when I install it by right
clicking on the setup file in VB.NET and then pressing F5 to debug the
code...everything works fabulously that way.
The problem happens if I DON'T press F5 and just open Outlook. The
registry key turns from a 3 to a 2 and i get the load error. Funny
thing is that the same thing happens with Randy's original addin too...
Any help would be appreciated!
Mike
Is your assembly (and Randy's) set to be trusted?

No, I mean CAS security for the assembly.

Not sure what you mean by CAS security.

I think that Ken means that you should convince yourself that the add-in has
been given proper permissions.
So start the .NET Framework 2.0 Configuration applet which incidentially is
*not* bundled with the 2.0 redist!
Get it by downloading the SDK.
Open My Computer|Runtime Security Policy|User|Code Groups|All_Code
You should now the add-in two levels below All_Code and see this
"Assemblies matching the membership condition are granted this permission
set at the current policy level: FullTrust.
Permission Set Description:
Allows full access to all resources"
Mind you, my add-in has been deployed to three PC's and it still doesn't
work on all three so something besides CAS is in play.
Regards
Peter
