Hi all,
This seems like a simple enough task, but I can't figure it out: I would like to add two buttons to the default Ribbon tab "Start" in the Mail view of Outlook. I have tried creating an adxRibbonTab with a adxRibbonGroup, checking the options "OutlookMailRead;OutlookMailCompose", so that it would get added to the Mail Ribbons. The Addin is registered correctly and loaded successfully, but nothing is displayed.
Could someone help me out and show me how to add these two buttons to the default ribbon? Thanks a lot.
Kind regards,
MartinDavid Bodensohn

Hi Ulrich,
Please try the settings below:
this.adxRibbonTab1.IdMso = "TabReadMessage";
this.adxRibbonTab1.Ribbons = AddinExpress.MSO.ADXRibbons.msrOutlookMailRead;
this.adxRibbonTab2.IdMso = "TabMail";
this.adxRibbonTab2.Ribbons = AddinExpress.MSO.ADXRibbons.msrOutlookExplorer;
this.adxRibbonTab3.IdMso = "TabNewMailMessage";
this.adxRibbonTab3.Ribbons = AddinExpress.MSO.ADXRibbons.msrOutlookMailCompose;
Getting a correct value for the IdMso property is described in the section Referring to Built-in Ribbon Controls in the manual, see {Add-in Express}\Docs\adxnet.pdf on your PC. Or, you can find this section at http://www.add-in-express.com/docs/net-ribbon-components.php.
Does it work for you?

Hi Andrei,
Thanks a lot for the quick reply. I have tried to add these settings (after creating three ribbons tabs with one ribbon group and the two buttons each), but the new ribbon group is still not showing up. I have re-compiled the add-in and re-registered it from VS2010. Still, no luck, even though under COM-Add-ins, I can see that the Add-in is loaded correctly.
Any ideas what might be wrong?
Kind regards,

Hi Andrei,
Thanks again for the quick reply. I got it working now by using the sample Add-in as the basis. I tried to figure out what the problems was by comparing my project setup to the sample add-in, but unfortunately I couldn't quite narrow it down.
Well, it is working now and I can start testing and debugging.
Thanks a lot for your help.
Kind regards,
