Problem mixing OOTB SPD WFAs and Custom WFAs?

I have acually solved this problem in my open source project. Download the source code from http://spdactivities.codeplex.com and look at the source for one of the permission activities. The reason your code does not work is because the OOTB activities participate in a transaction and your custom activity does not.

That is why your custom activity runs before all OOTB activities.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
