Office 2010 Save Dialog not showing on computer through remote desktop

I am using remote deskop to remote into a server, and run a C# .Net application that saves information to Excel.

I am opening a saveas dialog on a server using Excel's built-in interop diaglog:

dialog = dialogs[InteropExcel.XlBuiltInDialog.xlDialogSaveAs];
dialog.Show(filename);

The Dialog does not show, and it just pauses there, as if waiting for the dialog to be closed. I tested it on other computers using Office 2003, 2007 and 2010, but none of them have any issues.

The server uses Server 2007 SP2.

The problem was with an add-on in Excel. It causes the the "Open" and "Save As" dialog to crash when you open it. I found the solution on this page:
