Hi Ken,

I tried it with the two following Ribbon descriptions. I receive the error
message:

Failure in analysing from "Quick Access Toolbar" as NCName-datatype.
Failure in analysing from attribut "idMso" with the value "Quick Access
Toolbar"

(It is translated from german)

1.) Ribbon desription:

For one thing you have to use the correct name and tie it to an idMso, plus
you need the tabs and tab tags there just as if you were working with
any other ribbon:

ribbon
tabs
tab idMso="Quick Access Toolbar"

You also should be aware that any QAT modifications you make will only apply
to the QAT for that ribbon. If you customize the QAT for Outlook.Mail.Read
it won't apply to Outlook.Mail.Compose or any other ribbon. You'll need to
apply your QAT customizations to every ribbon where you want the
customizations to appear.

Hi,

with the following code I try to insert buttons into the
QuickAccessToolbar,
which does not work.

Dim strDescription As String
strDescription = "customUI
xmlns=""http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/2006/01/customui""
loadImage=""LoadImage"""
strDescription = strDescription & _
"ribbon" & _
"quat" & _
"documentControls" & _
"button id=""IDS_WaehlenCombo"" label=""" &
GetCheckedResString(IDS_WaehlenCombo) & """
onAction=""cmdCommonRibbonBttn""
getImage=""GetImage"" /" & _
"button id=""IDS_Auflegen"" label=""" &
GetCheckedResString(IDS_Auflegen) & """ onAction=""cmdCommonRibbonBttn""
getImage=""GetImage"" /" & _
"button id=""IDS_Aktionen"" label=""" &
GetCheckedResString(IDS_Aktionen) & """ onAction=""cmdCommonRibbonBttn""
getImage=""GetImage""/" & _
"/documentControls" & _
"/quat" & _
"/ribbon" & _
"/customUI"

Does anybody see my failure?
Christian
