Default Adding a button to existing ribbon

Thanks Ken,

The only examples I have seen do not do anything with the new message
window. I am kind of confused on how to implement ribbon group just for
those windows.

Thanks,
Tom -

Other than using startFromScratch and designing a complete ribbon
replacement, the best you can do is to add a new group to an existing
ribbon tab. You can't just insert a button within an MS defined group.

Lots of ribbon samples at the Office Development center at MSDN, have you
checked out any of those addin samples?

Hi all,

I would like to add a button to a ribbon on the new message window. I
would like to add this button as the first button on the message ribbon.
Everything I have read says you can only add a button group to the
ribbon.

Furthermore is there an example of adding a new group to a new message
window?

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Tom-
