I am trying to persist a custom dimension style in ArcMap with Arcobjects, I am getting this error when adding the style from the Stream in the Load method.
at ESRI.Carto.IDimensionStyles.AddStyle() as DimToolbar.ApplicationExtension1.Load() in ...\DimToolbar
ApplicationExtension1.cs: line 254
Here is the Load method line 254 is line 59 below.
