Adding a custom picture to command bar button
Outlook version?
If 2003 or 2002 you can use the Picture and Mask properties of the CommandBarButton object and pass IPictureDisp objects, except in cases of WordMail, where you can't pass an IPictureDisp across process boundaries. If 2000 or for WordMail you must use PasteFace, which pastes an image that meets the button image specs that's on the Clipboard. You must put the image you want on the Clipboard yourself before calling PasteFace. For 2007 you only want to use the CommandBar interfaces with Explorer buttons, where you can use Picture and Mask with IPictureDisp images. -- Ken Slovak [MVP - Outlook] http://www.slovaktech.com Author: Professional Programming Outlook 2007.
