THIS IS FOR EVALUATION PURPOSES ONLY
SCENARIO & USE: While using Outlook, many of us like to click
Reply to All and wish all the attachments were included as-is. Or we wish we could click
Forward and have all the recipients copied in as well. Here is a combo that helps both.
Reply All with Attachment add-in!
See the attached Image that shows the 'Custom Actions' button that has 'Reply All with Attachment' button under it.
PREREQUISITES:
I have tested only on the following Vista, Windows 7 RC, Outlook 2007 and above. It needs .NET 3.5 SP1. The Add-in is built on VS2010 Beta1 so it requires Visual Studio Tools for Office system 4.0 Beta1 (VSTO 4.0 Runtime). Simply install VS2010 Beta1 from
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/netframework/dd819232.aspxINSTALL:
Ensure you have installed VSTO 4.0 runtime (comes with VS2010 Beta1)
1. Ensure that Outlook is not running.
2. Extract the ReplyAllwithAttachment folder contents and click 'setup' to install
3. Open Outlook.
4. Open an email item from your inbox. You should see 'Custom Actions' button with 'Reply All with Attachment' button under it. Click it to see if the add-in does its job!
UNINSTALL:
1. Ensure that Outlook is not running.
2. Go to Control Panel - Add Remove / Uninstall programs. You can uninstall
ReplyAllwithAttachment from there
Note: If you aleady have a Custom Actions button, with some add-in, this add-in just installs a button under it.
