Using Windows Forms

[Al_21_11]

When i call a windows form from my add-in it will not dispaly any of the
information on the form.
this is how im calling my form.

Dim frmExport As New Form()
frmExport.ShowDialog()

i wanted to get text enterted in msoControlEdit button and do a search and
display results and allow the user to select result. form works fine when im
not using it in an outlook add-in so i dont know what is wrong

Are you populating the controls on the form with Outlook data? What you show
is just a call to display the form, so it doesn't tell us anything.

i wanted to populate the form with outlook contacts. but right now i can't
even get a label or text box to display when i call the form. im using vs2008
for outlook 2003

I have no idea what your form is or how the controls are set up. This
doesn't sound at all like an Outlook problem, but more something in how
you're using forms in VS. I'd suggest posting in a VS group and being more
specific about your form and how it's constructed.
