I'm trying to do an action on a selected attachment in outlook 2010. I created an Outlook VSTO project in VS2012.
This is the XML for adding a button on the attachment ribbon:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<customUI xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/2009/07/customui" onLoad="Ribbon_Load">
<ribbon>
<contextualTabs>
<tabSet idMso="TabSetAttachments">
<tab idMso="TabAttachments">
<group label="MyGroup" id="MyAttachmentGroup">
<button id="AttachButton"
size="large"
label="Do something"
imageMso="HappyFace"
onAction="DoSomething" />
</group>
</tab>
</tabSet>
</contextualTabs>
</ribbon>
</customUI>
This is the code in ThisAddIn.cs
protected override Microsoft.Office.Core.IRibbonExtensibility CreateRibbonExtensibilityObject()
{
return new ProcessAttachment(this);
}
This is the ProcessAttachment class:
[ComVisible(true)]
public class ProcessAttachment : Office.IRibbonExtensibility
{
private Office.IRibbonUI ribbon;
private ThisAddIn plugin;
public ProcessAttachment(ThisAddIn plugin)
{
this.plugin = plugin;
}
public void Ribbon_Load(Office.IRibbonUI ribbonUI)
{
this.ribbon = ribbonUI;
}
public void DoSomething(Office.IRibbonControl control)
{
var explorer = plugin.Application.ActiveExplorer();
var selection = explorer.Selection;
if (selection.Count > 0)
{
object selectedItem = selection[1];
var mailItem = selectedItem as Outlook.MailItem;
//How to get selected attachment?
}
}
}
How can I get the selected attachment here?
