When I got the new inspector event, I will create a combo box and toolbar
to the commandbars on the inspector window. And try to add the OnChange
event using the call DispEventAdvise or AtlAdvise.
When I use DispEventAdvise, it return S_OK. however, no one trigger the call
OnChangeCommandBarComboBox.
When I use AtlAdvise, the call returns 0x80040200 which means there is CONNECT_E_NOCONNECTION
Error

Anyone knows how to solve it?

Thanx alot.
