Hi Ken,

You do not need a separate Word addin. In your Outlook addin if you discover
that the window is using WordMail you instantiate a Word.Application object
declared WithEvents. Then you handle the WindowActivate event. If the
Envelope.Visible property is true on the window passed to you in
WindowActivate then it's a WordMail window, if that property is false it's a
Word document.

Whow, this worked perfectly. Needed some additional work, because this
does not work with OL2000, but managed to run. Thank you.

Is there a solution for Problem 1, too? If I have Word as editor it
seem to be impossible to reproduce the CommandBar position in a
reliable way. Sometimes, another CommandBar, that have been in the
same row before, is pushed down one row after inserting my own
CommandBar. Other situations, the button has been placed on top of the
"Send" CommandBar, and after restauration it is below the "Send"
CommandBar.

Any solution for this, too?
