Hi,
I am trying to add a menu item into the standard toolbar. I was ablw to add it directly. But I want to add them under the drop downlist of new (when we click the down arrow after new, we are getting a list of menus. there I want to add.
can anyone give me a sample code for this.
Thanks | | Madhavi.Nekkanti Wednesday, October 14, 2009 12:47 PM | Hello Madhavi,
In Outlook 2003, New button in toolbar is added/removed by click dropdown arrow of the toolbar. It originally comes from the submenu New of File Menu. So we just add a menu item to New submenu item. In this thread, it introducts how to add an item to menu. Here, I have made a slight changes with the code posted by Norm in above link,
private void AddMenuBar()
{
try
{
Office.CommandBarPopup cbc = (Office.CommandBarPopup)
this.Application.ActiveExplorer().CommandBars.FindControl
(Office.MsoControlType.msoControlPopup, 30037, missing, missing);
if (cbc != null)
{
buttonOne = (Office.CommandBarButton)cbc.Controls.
Add(Office.MsoControlType.msoControlButton, missing,
missing, 1, true);
buttonOne.Style = Office.MsoButtonStyle.
msoButtonIconAndCaption;
buttonOne.Caption = "Button One";
buttonOne.FaceId = 65;
buttonOne.Tag = "c123";
buttonOne.Click += new
Office._CommandBarButtonEvents_ClickEventHandler(
buttonOne_Click);
}
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
System.Windows.Forms.MessageBox.Show(ex.Message);
}
}
Now, by launching Outlook 2003, you will see this new button in the toolbar and File menu->New.
If you have any further question, please feel free to let us know.
Best regards,
Bessie

| | Bessie Zhao Friday, October 16, 2009 6:50 AM | Hi Bessie, Thank you very much. This is helpful to me. I am trying to provide my own functionality when the use clicks just "New". not the popup.
Office.
CommandBarPopup cbc = (Office.CommandBarPopup)
this.Application.ActiveExplorer().CommandBars.FindControl
(Office.
MsoControlType.msoControlPopup, 30037, missing, missing);
cbc.OnAction =
"newMenu_Click";
But I am getting errror as "Member not found"
Can you please help me undertsand what is wrong with this. How to resolve the problem?
I tried with both these alternatives for newMenu_Click
//Error with this also
public void newMenu_Click(Microsoft.Office.Core.CommandBarPopup Ctrl, ref bool CancelDefault)
{
MessageBox.Show("new button clicked............");}
//Error with this also
public void newMenu_Click()
{
MessageBox.Show("new button clicked............");}
Thanks in advance
