Is it possible to access the current new item Id, (pre-creation) from a custom ribbon button action?
For example, I have created a new button within the Appointment Tab, so when someone creates a new appointment or meeting, my button is there on the right hand side of the ribbon. I have that wired up to a Click event. What I want to do here, is somehow access some sort of identifier to the currently being composed appointment/meeting, when that button is clicked.
So I'm wondering; - does outlook create some sort of ID for the message, even before clicking 'Send' or 'Save' ? And if so is this obtainable?
EDIT: Just thought I'd add, an alternative/workaround for me would be if I could somehow bind or add data to the appointment, which I could then retrieve through some sort of listener when the appointment gets created (which I would then have the ID for). I'm hoping this will definitely be possible given the other ribbon buttons perform actions on the appointment when it's created?
