using VSTA / codebehind i was getting a object reference not set to an instance of an object error.
turned out i fat-fingered some code.
make sure to check the fields you are referencing.
example:
bad -
Dim sAttchID As XPathNavigator = nav.SelectSingleNode(“/my:theAttachmentLibID“, Me.NamespaceManager)
good -
Dim sAttchID As XPathNavigator = nav.SelectSingleNode(“//my:theAttachmentLibID”, Me.NamespaceManager)

in the Common\Internet folder you would create a new DWORD value OpenDocumentsReadWriteWhileBrowsing and assign it a [...]
