Outlook Appointment Ribbon window Save Button Event

Question

I am looking a way to "catch" the click event of the upper left save button:

How can i create a custom handle to this event? (the click event)

Answer 1

I don't think you can repurpose or override the behavior of a QAT button, but a better choice would be to intercept the AppointmentItem.Write event.

Answer 2

It doesn't matter where the ribbon buttons are located.

You can use the following ribbon XML markup to repurpose the Save button, it works just fine on my PC with Outlook 2013:

<customUI xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/2006/01/customui" onLoad="ribbonLoaded" loadImage="getImages">
 <commands>
   <command idMso="FileSave" onAction="onActionRepurposed" />
 </commands>
</customUI>

See Temporarily Repurpose Commands on the Office Fluent Ribbon for more information.

This sample is for 2013 to 2016 outlook add-in projects. Called when you click save button or send meeting

    using System;
    using System.Collections.Generic;
    using System.Linq;
    using System.Text;
    using System.Windows.Forms;
    using System.Xml.Linq;
    using Outlook = Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook;
    using Office = Microsoft.Office.Core;

    namespace blah
    {
        public partial class ThisAddIn
        {
            public bool Appointment { get; set; }
            public bool NewAppointment { get; set; }
            public Outlook.Inspector CurrentInspector { get;  set; }
            private void ThisAddIn_Startup(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
            {
                Application.Inspectors.NewInspector += InspectorOnNewInspector;
            }

        //Save event of appt or meeting
                 ((Outlook.AppointmentItem)inspector.CurrentItem).Write += OnWrite;
            }

} }
