Is it possible to get events fired when i click on any of the "Navigation
Pane" ? (Mail , Contacts, Tasks ..)
if yes .. please let me know how ....

thanks in advance

Not really. There are no Navigation Pane events exposed in the Outlook
object model. You can trap a right-click in parts of the Navigation Pane by
using a hack but not others. You can trap a right-click on the buttons
(Mail, Calendar, etc.) but not the list of folders.

To see how to trap an Explorer right-click (which is what you'll get when
right-clicking in a Navigation Pane button) see

Hi Ken,

Thanks for the reply, thats not what i am looking at.

let me brief u about my problem.

1. I have a add-ins which would create a .pst file using AddStoreEx
oNS.AddStoreEx("C:\abc.pst", Outlook.OlStoreType.olStoreANSI)

2. then i am creating a Folder of type "Task"

oNS.Folders.Item(iFolder).Folders.Add("DEF",
Outlook.OlDefaultFolders.olFolderTasks)

These two are created succesfully

now my problem is when i click on the Tasks ( From Navigation Pane) i would
like to see only Outlooks default Tasks and NOT "DEF" (task) which i
created..

is this possible. ??? ( How u understood my problem )

i am in a fix . please kindly help

Thanks

Yes, I understand but that's not what you asked originally. You had asked
about firing events when the Navigation Pane is clicked and that's what I
answered.

You cannot program which files of a certain type will or won't be shown in
the Navigation Pane.
 
cool.. thanks a ton..
