I've created an Outlook 2010 Add-in (32 bit) using vb.net (2012). The add-in only has a ribbon tab and a small amount of code attached - just a msgbox for each button.
I've published and installed the addin, and installed the add-in in outlook. Restarted Outlook. The add-in appears to be active and this persists when outlook is restarted.
The ribbon doesn't appear.
As a test, I created another Outlook 2010 ribbon that adds text to newly created emails - that one works.
I'm new to vb.net.
What can I try next?
Fixed.
I hadn't set the RibbonType property of the ribbon to appear in the 'explorer' ribbon. The add-in was working, but I couldn't see that until I started to reply to an email.

I am developing a VBA add-in for MS Access. I have a CustomUI ribbon that loads fine when I open the add-in as a normal database. However, when I install the add-in using the Add-in manager, the custom ribbon does not appear.
My VBA add-in (.accda) currently consists of the following tables:
USysRegInfo - Set up as described on this page
USysRibbons - Set up as described in this article (Customize the Ribbon - Access)
How do I configure the VBA add-in to show the CustomUI ribbon when the add-in is installed/loaded?
I have been able to find documentation so far only on how to create a VBA "Menu Add-in," and how to customize the ribbon for a normal database. I haven't found any documentation on using the CustomUI ribbon from a VBA add-in in MS Access, so maybe this isn't possible.
You can reload the ribbon using
Application.LoadCustomUI NameOfTheRibbon, RibbonXMLFromUSysRibbonsTable

I have a Outlook Add-in built in VB.Currently whenever I run the Add-in through visual Studios it loads Outlook App and starts the Add-in functionality.
But I want to load the Add-In only when the Appointment item is open in Outlook.
Do we have a way to this? How to Add Button only on Appointment Item through Vb?
Why does it matter when Outlook loads your addin? You can chose to do nothing until the user opens an appointment. This is the same as not loading your addin.
I'm using a few VBA macros in Outlook 2013 Professional Plus in Windows 7 Family Version. After a windows crash, my macro in outlook can't work.
ALT+F11 open VBA editor, find all ribbons are grayed out, no project in Project window. can't edit VBA in editor.
close outlook, delete %userprofile%\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Outlook\VBAProject.OTM, then restart outlook
ribbons are back to live, "Project1" show up in project window, i can insert new module and edit VBA and save macro.
after save, close outlook, confirm the new "VBAProject.OTM" is created with right time stamp.
restart outlook, back to 1, all ribbon grayed out, can't find macro/project, can't edit VBA.
I've checked with Google, but can't find similar issue or answers.
tried delete office and reinstall, still not working.
Some article mentioned (Digital Certificate for VBA Projects and Visual Basic for Applications), both are installed.
appreciate if you could provide some input.
thx a lot.
Some screen prints below:
All ribbons grayed out, can't load or edit VBA
Delete VBAProject.OTM then restart outlook
I have developed add-in for outlook 2007.
I need to adjust the add-in code to outlook 2013, is there any migration tool / any other way to do this?
There is very little you would actually need to change. Your Outlook 2007 Object Model code should work the same in 2013.
The main thing you would need to change is your Outlook 2007 code that adds buttons to the Toolbar (CommandBar), so that it displays buttons in the Outlook 2013 Ribbon. See the Ribbon Overview page on MSDN for more info.
