Synomenon Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 I'm using Outlook 2007 and would like a custom button that will do these to whatever email is selected:- Mark the mail as read.- Move the mail to a specific folder.Can someone please help me with this? I've searched and can't find how to make such a button. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spacesurfer Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 write or record a macro that does that. then create a button for it. as far as i know, outlook 2007 does not have the ribbon interface so it shouldn't be that hard to assign a button the macro action.

Synomenon Posted December 4, 2007 Author Share Posted December 4, 2007 I tried making a macro:Tools -> Macro -> Macrosbut it looks like you have to know how to program. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spacesurfer Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 You can record a macro. I don't use outlook so I don't know if Outlook 2007 has a feature to record but I know Excel and Word both have a record feature. Even if you don't know how to write a macro, you can record it, then see how VBA works and you can learn to do some custom editing after recording. Play around outlook and see if you find a record. then record your actions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
