Please log in for more thread options Is your dll a managed dll or unmanaged. For unmanaged you may need to start
the app and then attach to the process. I've written pocket outlook rule
dll's, service dlls and others and am able to debug into these dll's using
the procedure below. For managed dll's the debugger will directly link into
the dll.
