Change outlook mailitem selection from c# outlook add-in in conversation view

I need to select a mailitem from my outlook add-in. I'm trying to use 

Outlook._Explorer explorer = OutlookApp.ActiveExplorer();  
explorer.AddToSelection(item);

and it's ok, but only if "Show as conversations" flag is not checked. When it's checked, i'm getting an error "The method you are invoking is invalid for a conversation view." How can i select a mailitem, when "Show as conversations" flag is checked?

AFAIK, you can use AddToSelection when Conversations are enabled. However there are a number of other conditions outlined in the link below that could prevent it from working. Just make sure to call Explorer.IsItemSelectableInView(Item) before calling AddToSelection.
