Is it possible to edit appointments in the Outlook Reading Pane?
It currently allows only to preview the appointment, but it would save a buttload of time if we wouldn't have to open and save every appointment all the time.
If not through standard settings, maybe through some reg key? Or an VBA script?
According to my search and test, you can’t edit appointment in Outlook reading pane except subject.
You could click select appointment, then you can change subject. Like this:
P.S. Reading pane only apply for preview appointment.

I was wondering if there was a way to for url in an outlook item and retrieve them to use them later.
I have a MessageReadCommandSurface add-in, but I only found a way to highlight them using a contextual add-in. Here's the documentation for that: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/office/dev/add-ins/outlook/contextual-outlook-add-ins.
Is there any event for newly opened Read command surfaces?
First of all, let's realize that Outlook web add-ins work under the context of the currently selected item only in Outlook. So, each time you select an item your contextual add-in must re-evaluate conditions to activate.
You may also consider implementing a pinnable task pane where you could handle the ItemChanged event. See Implement a pinnable task pane in Outlook for more information. So, if the take pane was loaded and pinned you can just handle the ItemChanged event and process a newly selected item with relying on contextual activations.
The event-based activation can also be helpful depending on your demands. See Configure your Outlook add-in for event-based activation for more information.
If none of the provided options suits your needs I'd suggest filing a feature request at https://aka.ms/M365dev-suggestions .
I am using the D365 CRM (Customer Service Hub) and I was wondering if there's a way to make the Comment window open in a pop-out window instead of opening a new Comment window all together. It would be nice to be able to see the original Case record and add a comment at the same time.
I'd recently enabled the D365 Enhanced Email feature which makes the interface so much better (being able to view the case and write an email at the same time). This was done by going to the "Sales Hub" app in D365 > App Settings > Overview page and clicking 'Manage' under Enhanced Email Settings from there.
So I'm basically wondering if there is something similar that I could apply to the 'Comment' option?
I want to keep task pane open all the time when new document is created or opened for office mac word addin, when ever user open or create new document it should show the add-in task pane.
Thanks in advance.
If your scenario requires doing this for any document I don't think you can do that, at least not yet.
In office applications i want to get the word on which the user right clicks.
i was able to get for Excel and Word. in outlook and PowerPoint i am not able detect the right click event.
In outlook i want to detect right click on a word in mail body.
In power point i want to detect right click in a slide content.
In outlook i have tried the events:
ItemContextMenuDisplay,
AttachmentContextMenuDisplay,
FolderContextMenuDisplay,
ContextMenuClose,
StoreContextMenuDisplay,
ViewContextMenuDisplay,
In power point i have tried:
WindowBeforeRightClick,
can somebody help me with the events to be used?
I will try to answer the Outlook part.
The Outlook object model doesn't provide any events for that. The only possible solution is to add your control to the context menu and handle the getVisible or getEnabled callbacks. Thus, you will be aware when the context menu is going to be displayed. But it seems MS doesn't provide the required IDs for that menu, see Extending the User Interface in Outlook 2010 for more information.
See Office 2013 Help Files: Office Fluent User Interface Control Identifiers
In the case of PowerPoint, WindowBeforeRightClick is the correct event.
You would find that setting Cancel = True in the handler for that event only works if the right-click is on the slide itself. On a shape or within a text range this fails to work as expected.
Workaround is the lock the screen and switch to a different view and back and then update the screen to prevent the contextual menu from appearing for the shape/text range.
I'm creating a VSTO add-in for Outlook. As part of this add-in, I need to be able to allow the user the save a grid as a CSV file. When the user clicks on the "Export" button on the grid, I want to pop up the "Save as" dialog box, allow the user to select a file/enter a file name and location. When the user clicks ok, I need a way for my add-in to gain control again, get the file location entered and use that to write my CSV into.
I've been looking around for some time now, but I just can't figure out how to do this. Any ideas?
Use the SaveFileDialog like in the answer here: Using the OpenFileDialog control in a C# application
