Outlook Interop Exception

Question

Trying to automate Outlook as

Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.Application myApp = new Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook.ApplicationClass();    
Microsoft.Office         


        

Answer 1

I've been stumped by this problem for days. This worked for me:

I just realized that Outlook 2013 is 64 bit... And my C# app had in Project Properties -> Build "Any CPU" as platform target and a check-mark in "Prefer 32-bit".

I changed the Platform target to x64 and it worked!
