I usually play on the Excel VBA playground- I'm not afraid to learn, but I'm
relatively unfamiliar with the Outlook model.
We currently have some paper forms that I'd like to replace with Outlook
forms (if appropriate). I've done some basic reading, but I want to make sure
I design forms that will actually work as intended. Our needs basically fall

1) Message forms are designed to be sent, not to post data in a folder, and
cannot be used as a folder's default form.
2) Mail-enabling a public folder is a task for the Exchange administrator.
To be fully functional, a messsage form needs to be published to the
Organizational Forms library or each user's Personal Forms library. See

This was different enough from my other post I though it made sense to
seperate it into a different thread.
I'd like to take advantage of the Outlook server name list, providing the
user a box just like the To, cc:, or bcc: boxes where they can use the
built-in name validation...but use that as a field in the form, not have it
go to that person. For example, if we want to build a
I have created 2 forms. The first is sent to recipients and when they click
reply, the second appears and needs to be filled in.
I have worked through many of the issues here in the forum but one remains.
On the reply form after all items have been completed, the person clicks on
SEND and nothing appears to happen. Actually, the original note is updated
in the Inbox list to
I might have just figured out that what I thought was a standard message form
is actually a standard note form? I should create a folder that contains
"notes" and not "mail and posts"???
