Default Custom Form Server (Message Props)

Hi,

I have created a custom form ATL local server that interfaces with Outlook
and my message store for one of our customers. The form server supplies a
custom form for the open message form of my private message class. I have run
into a unique problem that obviously requires marshalling. Since it is a
local ATL server I am unable to get string properties from my IMessage
interface within my message store. I get the standard COM errors for unable
to retrieve the data. I have a couple questions that I am hoping someone may
shed some light on.

1. Can we create the Form Server as an inproc server and do away with the
local server? If so how do I denote that within the CFG file? I have read a
couple old articles that say that this is not possible.
2. Does anybody have any sample marshalling code necessary for the MAPI
Message store?

Thanks,
Tom -
