if a received mail has some attachments, when we right click on one or more attachments, outlook (2007 and 2010 ) will trigger an event called AttachmentContextMenuDisplay (I find this by outlookSpy), but this does not triggered in outlook2013, any body know something about this?

if not, How can I know which attachment(s) the user was right clicking?

sorry guys, I solved this by myself. I don't know why outlook 2013 do not trigger the AttachmentContextMenuDisplay event.it does not. so I find the selected attachment(s) by another way.

when we right click on attachments. and click the ribbon button we added on the context menu. we have a param whose type is IRibbonControlPtr we can get the _AttachmentSelectionPtr by call get_Context method. that's it.
