Outlook-VBA: detecting opening a file event
Using either:
Private Sub myInspector_NewInspectr(ByVal Inspector As Outlook.Inspector)
or
Application_ItemLoad(ByVal Item As Object)
I need to find out if Inspector.CurrentItem or the Item loaded are opened from inside of outlook (by clicking an email) or by openning a .msg or .oft file saved somewhere.
I also need to find out the name of the file and the path to it.
Is there a way to do that?

You cannot do that. More than that, recent (Outlook 2007 and newer) versions first create a temporary message in the primary store first when you double click on an MSG file.,

That's disappointing! Is there a way to intercept the temporary message creation?

Only when the message is saved... And then there is no way to distinguish it fro ma regular message created by the user and placed in the Drafts folder.
