You can set up the handlers for those events in NewInspector.

If you declare a button you must declare it at a level where it will have
scope for as long as you need that button. Usually any UI such as a
CommandBarButton is added in the first Inspector.Activate() event, in later
versions of Outlook the Inspector.CommandBars interface isn't fully
instantiated until that event fires, it usually isn't fully there in
NewInspector() where you get a weak object reference to the
Inspector.CurrentItem.
