My Custom Form is based on the original TASK form. Where do i find the TASK
ICO file to change the POST ICO to a TASK ICO?

I guess I didn't make it clear enough: There is no such thing as sending as a post. Posts are posted. Messages are sent.

What is the message class for the published form? For the received items?

Hmmmm..Whats weird is that this worked properly for them before. They askd me
to edit the form by removing a couple users from a dropdown. I did that and
re-published it, and this problem arose. Initially all version of the form
had this issue. I was able to edit the reply, reply all and forward types
from "post" to "message" under the actions tab of the form in design mode. I
just don't know how to change it from being sent as a post to being sent as a
message. -Jerry

That's the default icon for any custom form. If you want a different icon, set it on the (Properties) page in design mode. Note, thought, that custom message forms cannot show different icons for read, forwarded, etc. You may need to consider using some other way to create an "audit trail."

Yes, it is published to the organizational forms library. When I mean by
"sends as a post" Is that when it is received, the icon beside the received
item shows as a pushpin in a note (post). Once it gets forwarded, it shows up
an an envelope (message). The significance to this is that all the completed
forms end up in a public folder and get forwarded on from there. They need
them to come in as messages because they use the envelope icon as an audit
trail per se'. They can see if it has been read, forwarded etc..... When it
shows up as a post they don't have the audit trail available. I hope that
makes sense. Thanks for your help, Sue. -Jerry

Is the form published to the Organizational Forms library? If not, it's not likely to work.

I have a form that is used to transmit repair call info to our technicians. I
am having an issue with the form. The problem is that when the form is sent
it sends as a post instead of sending as a message. I have it set to forward
as a message, but I don't know how to have it send as a message when the form
is initially used. Any help anyone can provide would be appreciated. Thanks.
