Programmatically using the "resend this message" action?
Hi, I'm very new to the whole Add-In world. For my first add-in, I wanted
to address the resending feature.
Our spam engine requires that emails get resent to a particular email address.
I personally got tired of double-clicking an email, just so I could select
Actions - Resend this message. I figured that adding a new menu to the Menu
Bar would be the best way (in addition to having an accelerator key, like
Ctrl-Shift-P).
So I actually have three questions:
1. Is there a really good online resource for programming Outlook, or should
I go and purchase Microsoft Outlook Programming?
2. By searching through online resources, I managed to get the new menu to
appear in Outlook, but can't figure out how to get accelerator keys (like
Ctrl-Shift-P, etc) to work.
3. What objects in the Application object should I be looking at to try to
figure out how to perform the "Resend this message" action in my command
handler?
I'm a VC++ programmer, but the only examples I could find online are in VB,
so I'm using VB6 at the moment, until I can learn how to port to VC++. My
intial attempts using ATL would compile, but the add-in would never appear
in Outlook, even though the add-in properties were clearly listed in the
registry...
Any information on the above three questions would be really appreciated!
Thanks,
Dave
