I am trying to interop with Outlook from a serviced component See
attached code below.
I am running my component inside a hostprocess (dllhost).
I succeds in creating the application object and the MailItem object,
but fails when I try to add an attachment. When I run the same code as
a standalone exe everything works just fine.

My target os is Win2k server

Please help me..

Component Code:

using System;
using System.EnterpriseServices;
using Interop.Outlook;
using System.Reflection;

[assembly: ApplicationName("OutlookTest")]
[assembly: ApplicationActivation(ActivationOption.Server)]
[assembly: ApplicationAccessControl(false)]

namespace OutlookTestComponent
{
    /// <summary>
    /// Summary description for Class1.
    /// </summary>
    public class OutlookTestComponent : ServicedComponent
    {
        public OutlookTestComponent()
        {
            //
            // TODO: Add constructor logic here
            //
        }

        public string test()
        {
            Interop.Outlook._Application OutlookApp = new
Interop.Outlook.ApplicationClass();

            MailItem m = OutlookApp.CreateItem(OlItemType.olMailItem) as
MailItem;

            object optional = System.Reflection.Missing.Value;
            m.Attachments.Add(@"c:\temp\test.txt", optional, optional,
optional);

            return "Success";
        }
    }
}

Client Code

using System;
using OutlookTestComponent;

namespace oltest
{
    /// <summary>
    /// Summary description for Class1.
    /// </summary>
    class Class1
    {
        /// <summary>
        /// The main entry point for the application.
        /// </summary>
        [STAThread]
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            OutlookTestComponent.OutlookTestComponent c = new
OutlookTestComponent.OutlookTestComponent();

            Console.WriteLine(c.test());
            //
            // TODO: Add code to start application here
            //
        }
    }
}
