Is there anyway to hook onto the dial option in outlook that dials via
Messenger?

Thanks in advance

Martin

Outlook 2002 and later have a NameSpace.Dial([contactitem]) method
that dials using your default DUN connection. That's about it.

Thanks for replying Ken. I was more thinking of a way where I could
substitute (or add) my own dial routine. I already do this by adding a
toolbar putton and looking for the currently selected contact but this is
not as nice as the dial option.

I noticed there is an empty "Additional Actions" menu item underneath. Could
I add to that perhaps?

Best Regards

Martin

No, that menu can't be added to that I know of.
