What Outlook version? Where is the button, on an Inspector or an Explorer?
In general you can get an Explorer button for the active Explorer using code to find the button such as: Dim button As Office.CommandBarButton ' ol is an Outlook.Application object already instantiated, this code assumes button added ' to Standard toolbar Set button = ol.ActiveExplorer.CommandBars("Standard").FindCont rol(Tag := "MyTag") If Not (button Is Nothing) Then button.Execute End If -- Ken Slovak [MVP - Outlook] http://www.slovaktech.com Author: Professional Programming Outlook 2007 Reminder Manager, Extended Reminders, Attachment Options http://www.slovaktech.com/products.htm "Marius" wrote in message ...

What do you mean it isn't released? Is it still there if Outlook is started
without your code running? If so that means you didn't set Temporary := True when you created the button, that Outlook didn't close properly or that you didn't delete the button as a belt and suspenders safety precaution when the relevant Explorer or Inspector was closed. Or a combination of all three. I always create my UI using the Temporary argument and also delete the UI when the container closes. That way you are never left with relic UI stored in the outcmd.dat file. -- Ken Slovak [MVP - Outlook] http://www.slovaktech.com Author: Professional Programming Outlook 2007 Reminder Manager, Extended Reminders, Attachment Options http://www.slovaktech.com/products.htm "Marius" wrote in message ...

Unless you change the State of the button it shouldn't look "pressed" when
you call Execute. -- Ken Slovak [MVP - Outlook] http://www.slovaktech.com Author: Professional Programming Outlook 2007 Reminder Manager, Extended Reminders, Attachment Options http://www.slovaktech.com/products.htm "Marius" wrote in message ...
