iManage add-in causes non-modal error in other add-ins

pennyg

Hi, we a number of add-ins for Filesite which were written using VB6. Each is accessed via the right mouse click option and have beeen written using the iManage SDK. All add-ins work and have not caused issues in the past. We now have a client running IPFX which loads a non-modal login screen when Outlook starts up. If any of our add-ins are installed IPFX will not load the login screen and gives the error: 'Non-modal forms cannot be displayed in this host application from an ActiveX DLL, ActiveX Control, or Property Page'. We have written an add-in which does nothing more than adding an option to the right click menu and the issue still happens.

The problem has been tested on Filesite 8.2Sp2 and 8.5.

Has anyone experienced this problem and can suggest any solutions.

thanks in advance.

This problem doesn't seem to exist for add-ins written using .Net - migrated the application to .Net and all is fixed.
