Hello Yossi,

To get selected attachments, you need to cast RibbonControl.Context to AttachmentSelection (introduced in Outlook 2007), see http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/ff863628(v=office.15).aspx.

Hi Yossi,

You can import the type libray of Outlook 2007 or you can use late binding. Note that you cannot call this method if the HostMajorVersion property of the add-in module returns 11 or less.

Type libraries for all Outlook versions are almost 100% backward compatible. This is why your code using the type library of Outlook 2000 works with Outlook 2013.
