Anyone have experience programming for Office?

Boss asked me if I could investigate some options to add a send and save, or send and file button to outlook. So you create a new email and the screen looks all normal but next to the send button is a send & save button.

Google seems to indicate there are ways to add buttons and things but I have no experience with this myself. Anyone?? Anyone?? Bueller??

Do you want to do this in Excel?

Look into button macros.

Outlook. Imagine the new message window. It has a send button, a to field, a cc field a subject field... I want to add a send & save button. The idea is that when someone is sending an important email they can choose to save it permanently rather than just having it go to the sent items folder.

Simple solution. Create a rule.

If this is for Office 2007, I believe the ribbon interface is pretty easy to add buttons to and deploy to an enterprise. Here's a start: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb410115.aspx.
