Categorize Button on outgoing email

[goran]

Hi,

How can I make 'Categorize' button show on the ribbon on outgoing/new
messages. I know I can go to Options->More Options->Categories, but I want to
be available on the ribbon. It shows up when I open existing message from the
inbox. I use Outlook 2007.

I try adding the key
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Office\12.0\Outlook\Preferences
SendPersonalCategories"=dword:00000001 in the registry but no success


Thanks in advance,
Goran

You can add a small function to your Outlook VBA project that displays the
dialog. You might call it with alt+f8, or customize the toolbar.

Thanks Michael for your prompt response.

How do I invoke this function from Outlook once I added it to a VBA project?

Thanks,

Goran

Either by pressing alt+f8, then select the function name; or right click the
toolbar, choose customize, macro, and drag the function name to the toolbar.
Without closing the dialog right click the new button again, and give it a
shorter name if you want to.
