Outlook COM Add-In: NewInspector dilemma

M

Mark S.

I am developing a COM Add-In which places a small toolbar in the inspector on the NewInspector event if the item is an email item. The Add-In then sets the CommandButton click event and waits..

Case 1: Outlook is the default email editor. Event is fired, and all is well

Case 2: Word is the default email editor. Event is not fired. The toolbar is placed in the inspector window as expected. I imagine this has something to do with the inspector window being in actuallity a Word application window even though the toolbar is referenced through Inspector.CommandBars within Outlook

Question: How can one capture the click event for case #2 when Word is the default email editor?

Does anyone have anything in the way of suggestions? BTW I know I can write the plug-in for Word too, but I already have the code written to do what I need using the Outlook object model...
