Answer 2

I read it.

But i didnt find a solution for my problem.
I would to display or not my region form by an button on the ruban.

 

Answer 3

As far as I know you would have to change the MessageClass of the item to one that does or doesn't use the form region and re-display the item (or re-select it in the Explorer in 2010 only).

Answer 4

I'll explain better.

In a 2010 AddIn Project, i Have a Ruban, and A FormRegion.cs (and my classes & forms).

Manifest : FormRegionType = Adjoining.

And FormRegionMessageClass("IPM.Note")] 

 So , when I launch my Solution, I Have my RegionForm here :

"Zone de formulaire" Contain my RegionForm.
How do the same that this clic on this button ? 

 

If you need more explications , tell me.

Thanks for your answers.

Answer 5

If you are using your form region with all message items there's no way to do what you want that I know of without changing message classes to a custom class then.

 

I do not think you will be able to do what you want to do.

Answer 6

So, if i create a new MessageClass like IPM.Note.Perso
How Launch my Form only when I want to ?
Presently i want to Keep the default Form for the "normal" message,

and i want to use a 2nd Form for "my messages".
Because After changing the MessageClass i dont find the button "Zone de formulaire".

Thanks.

Answer 7

I have no idea what "Zone de formulaire" is.

 

If you register your form region to only work for a custom MessageClass you can set the MessageClass for any open Inspector's CurrentItem, or you can set it when the item opens, or you can use the Add method of a folder's Items collection or you can use CreateItemFromTemplate. In other words the same ways you'd open any item with a custom MessageClass.

Answer 8

I done this, and it work :

I maked a FormRegion with a (IPM.Perso) MessageClass, replacement , and when i want to display it i created a new mail item with "IPM.Perso" messageclass.
Easy. ;D Like this :

Outlook.

Application ObjOutlook = new Outlook.Application

();

Outlook.

NameSpace

ObjNS;

Outlook.

MAPIFolder

ObjFolder;

Outlook.

MailItem

objForm;

Outlook.

Items ObjItems;

ObjOutlook.CreateObject(

"Outlook.Application"

);

ObjNS = ObjOutlook.GetNamespace(

"MAPI"

);

ObjFolder = ObjNS.GetDefaultFolder(Outlook.

OlDefaultFolders

.olFolderNotes);

ObjItems = ObjFolder.Items;

 

objForm = ObjItems.Add(

"IPM.Perso"

);

objForm.Display();
