BeforeShortcutRemove Event

Occurs before a new shortcut is removed from a group in the Shortcuts pane, either as a result of user action or through program code. This event is not available in Microsoft Visual Basic Scripting Edition (VBScript).

Sub object_BeforeShortcutRemove(ByVal Shortcut As OutlookBarShortcut, Cancel As Boolean)

object    An expression that evaluates to an OutlookBarShortcuts collection object.

Shortcut Required. The OutlookBarShortcut that is being removed.

Cancel       Optional. False when the event occurs. If the event procedure sets this argument to True, the shortcut is not removed from the group.

Example

The following Microsoft Visual Basic/Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) example prevents a user from removing a shortcut from the Shortcuts pane. The sample code must be placed in a class module, and the Initialize_handler routine must be called before the event procedure can be called by Microsoft Outlook.

Dim myOlApp As New Outlook.Application
Dim WithEvents myOlShortcuts As Outlook.OutlookBarShortcuts
Dim myOlBar As Outlook.OutlookBarPane

Sub Initialize_handler()
    Set myOlBar = myOlApp.ActiveExplorer.Panes.Item("OutlookBar")
    Set myOlShortcuts = myOlBar.Contents.Groups.Item(1).Shortcuts
End Sub

Private Sub myOlShortcuts_BeforeShortcutRemove(ByVal Shortcut As OutlookBarShortcut, Cancel As Boolean)
    MsgBox "You are not allowed to remove a shortcut from this group."
    Cancel = True
End Sub
