Some of our clients embed Excel workbooks into a word document.
We have provided them with an Excel only addin that utilises a custom task pane with Addin Express. They have been experiencing the following error in Microsoft Word when embedding excel, any thoughts?

Hello Sean,
I cannot reproduce this issue using Office 2016 and Add-in Express 8.2. What versions are you using? How do I reproduce the issue?

Hi Andrei,
sorry it has taken some time to get back on this one. The client is using the latest version of Add-in Express and Office 2016. The user cannot replicate the issue on command, which makes it hard to replicate. Some documents work fine one moment, and the next they produce this error.
However, the stack trace does indicate the fault is happening in the following line of code in your ADXAddinModule.cs:
ADXTaskPane.ADXCustomTaskPaneInstance instance =
p.Connect(ctpFactory.CreateCTP(p.ControlProgID, caption, (parent == null ? Type.Missing : parent)), parent /*(parent == null ? Type.Missing : parent)*/);
Does the parent need to be checked in case it is an embedded document? |

Hello Sean,
Would handling this exception in the OnError event of the add-in module work for you?
