POPUP IE WINDOW
 

We have created an outlook addin, in which clicking a button an IE window is
popped up. We use the InternetExplorer.Navigate2() method to popup the new
window which is present in the Interop.SHDocVw dll. The window opens "always
on top" with Outlook 2003 and IE6 or 7 provided the Microsoft Outlook 11.0
object library (9.2) .

We are in the process of migration to Outlook 2007 and we included Microsoft
Outlook 12.0 object library 12.0.4518.1014 to build the solution. No code
change on the Navigation part. But we see a different behaviour. Its always
displayed as minimized blinking window in the taskbar. The end users have to
explicitly click the minimized tab to bring the window to the foreground.



Here is the code sample



Private Sub btnAttachToDIAMSXe_Click(ByVal ctrl As CommandBarButton, ByRef
cancel As Boolean)

....................

Dim ieCtrl As New InternetExplorer

....................

....................

....................

ieCtrl.Navigate2("http://localhost/....", 1, "DIAMSXe External
Interface", postData, postHeader)

ieCtrl.Visible = True

....................

End Sub



Does anyone have any idea why the popup window appears minimized with the
Office 2007 and IE7 combination ? or is there a better way of

popping up a window through outlook addins.
