I'm using outlook 2007 and wanted to know if there is an option to bind keyboard shortcuts to outlook toolbar buttons?
Outlook 2010 has the special office 'strip' which allows you to place specific custom buttons with automatic shortcuts (Alt+1, Alt+2 ...) - is there something like that in Outlook 2007?

- The following table shows frequently used shortcuts in Outlook 2016 for Mac. ⌘ + S Save an item ⌘ + P Print an item ⌘ + Z Undo the last action ⌘ + Y Redo the last action.
Edit: As I already answered my question (in some way) - I realized that I might not have explained the problem accurately - What I needed was to be able to bind keyboard shortcuts to my custom macros. I assumed the only way to do it is by adding them as toolbar buttons - but that is not a requirement.

I found a solution to my problem:
- Add the custom buttons to the
menu barinstead of thetool bar - Give it a name with an accelerator, e.g.:
&1. Move to .... - Define the button to display
Image and Textso I'll have my Icon and the Accelerator displayed.
Below is the example of what I did
Now the Alt+1 accelerator invokes the Expire in 30 days operation.
Would appreciate any other solution as well - this feels like a workaround ...

Outlook Today is a great access tool. It displays the week's tasks and calendar. Keeping Outlook Today in view isn't particular intuitive, however. Here's how you can help. You need to show users how to access it so they can start working with it.
Perhaps the quickest way to view Outlook Today is to click the account name in the Navigation Pane. That might be the user's email account name or it might their PST file (Outlook Data File). They can check off completed tasks and quickly view appointments for the week. They can modify tasks and appointment items, bypassing the Navigation Pane and the respective windows. They can also see if they have any new email messages, without actually checking their Inbox. Outlook Today offers an easy way to stay on track, throughout the day. Occasionally, the Navigation Pane isn't readily available, which can happen when users are working in a custom view or have closed the Navigation Pane to free up a little space. When this happens, you'll want users to have a quick alternative, so consider adding Outlook Today to each user's Quick Access Toolbar (QAT). This task is so easy that users can do it themselves, once you show them how:Create Shortcut To Desktop
- From the QAT dropdown, choose More Commands.
- From the Choose Commands From dropdown, select Commands Not In The Ribbon.
- Select Outlook Today.
- Click Add to move Outlook Today to the Customize Quick Access Toolbar list.
- Click OK and Outlook will add the Outlook Today icon to the QAT. Simply click it to see Outlook Today anytime.
In Outlook 2007 and 2003, you can add Outlook Today to any menu or toolbar, as follows:
- Right-click any toolbar and select Customize.
- Click the Commands tab.
- In the Categories list, select Advanced.
- Drag Outlook Today from the Commands list to the menu bar or any toolbar.
- Click OK.
