I figured out a solution. The problem was with the second parameter of
publishform.

string
dllPath ;
object missing = System.Reflection.Missing.Value;
Ol.MailItem theItem;
Ol.FormDescription theDesc;

dllPath = GetAssemblyPath();
//Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolde r.Personal)
theItem = (Ol.MailItem)
this.OutlookApp.CreateItemFromTemplate(dllPath + formPath, missing);
theDesc = (Ol.FormDescription) theItem.FormDescription;
theDesc.DisplayName = formName;

theDesc.PublishForm(Ol.OlFormRegistry.olPersonalRe gistry,missing );
theItem.Close(Ol.OlInspectorClose.olDiscard);

Marshal.ReleaseComObject(theItem);
Marshal.ReleaseComObject(theDesc);

A problem with the Inbox would definitely be a problem with your code.
However, I don't know what the UserPermissions property is in the Inbox
folder, it's not an exposed property in the Outlook object model.

DisplayName defaults to the custom MessageClass unless you enter a different
string for that property when the custom form is published. It's not an
important property for anything other than what shows up in the custom forms
manager.

Hi Ken,

All my objects look ok, except for the inBoxFolder. I am not sure if
this is an issue but when i look at the UserPermissions property of the
inBoxFolder object it says:

error: an exception of type:
{System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException} occurred.

could this be the problem?

Also the DisplayName is set to IPM.Note.XXX. Is this ok? What is
display name used for anyway?

thanks,
