I have created a number of email templates in Outlook 2010 but am quite dismayed at the number of clicks and a drop-down menu that I have to navigate to actually reach them.

Is there an easy way that I can access these from the ribbon or quick access toolbar? I have spent a hour or so trying to do just that via the customize ribbon menu this afternoon with no joy...

Here's hoping and thanks in advance to anyone that can help me.

Kind regards

Step 1

Create VBA module for each template (Note: You may want to rename the Macro "F4' with a meaningful name)

i.e.,

Sub MakeItem()
Set newItem = Application.CreateItemFromTemplate("C:\Users\userf irst.userlastname\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Templa tes\nameofthefile.oft")
newItem.Display
Set newItem = Nothing
End Sub

Step 2

Create a new button through "Customize Ribbon." Under "Choose commands from" dropdown menu, select the Macro created in step 1 --> Assign icon. Voila! done!

Perfect - many thanks indeed!

Kind regards
