BUG: Outlook 8.03 Gives Extra Copy Notification to Outlook Extensions

ID: Q183156


The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Outlook 97


SYMPTOMS

Outlook client extensions that use the IExchExtCommands interface to receive menu notifications observe that during a Copy/Paste operation Outlook 8.03 issues an extra Copy notification (EECMDID_EditCopy) following the Paste notification (EECMDID_EditPaste).

This change in behavior from previous versions of Outlook may cause Outlook extensions that use menu notifications to behave incorrectly.
