Outlook 2007 Click a Button on the Ribbon through Code
Hello all,
I need to insert a signature into an E-mail through code in Outlook 2007. Does anyone know how I may be able to execute one of the Signatures from the Signature menu on the Ribbon? I know about the ExecuteMso method, but how do I get the idMso for the signatures that appear on the menu when a new signature is inserted on the Signature menu? I am inserting a custom signature into the menu and and I need to insert the signature into any new inspector when it opens up. In Outlook 2003, i was able to Find the commandbars object for the signature menu (using FindControl(ID)) and then loop through the commandbars collection to check the captions of the buttons and execute the button with my custom signature. How would I be able to achieve this in Outlook 2007? Thank you for any help in advance. Regards, Neil Goundar.

Outlook 2007 Click a Button on the Ribbon through Code
I think you are out of luck. Your better bet is to look into accessing
the signatures and their insertion from the Outlook object model. I don't do anything with Outlook that goes beyond the ribbon, so I'll leave the question whether this is possible up to another replier.

Outlook 2007 Click a Button on the Ribbon through Code
Hi Patrick,
Thank you for the reply. I have managed to solve this problem. The CommandBars.FindControl that i was using in Outlook 2003 wasnt working, but i observed that the commanbars collection is still available in Outlook 2007. From there it was just a matter of looping through the controls and finding the one that I was looking for. Could you confirm that I will not be able to click the Item on the signature menu using ExecuteMso(idMso)? Thank you for the help. I really appreciate it.

Outlook 2007 Click a Button on the Ribbon through Code
Hello Patrick,
Thank you for the confirmation. That is what i thought. On another note, since i am observing that commandbars is still available for use, i am asking myself what is the guarantee that microsoft does not remove the commandbars altogether in the future since the Ribbon has come into the picture. I guess i'll make do with the commanbars for now.
