That's possible only on custom pages, unless you want to use a SendKeys kludge (which I personally avoid).

Sorry I didn't describe it better. I did publish my forms so your suggestion
worked perfectly.

Would you by chance have any code for when the second form opens (e.g. the
Appointment form) so that it sets the focus to the "Start Time" field.

Thanks Sue!

As you describe it, that's not possible. Code runs only on published forms, not on .oft files. If you change your mind and decide to publish the form, though, take a look at the Application.CreateItemFromTemplate method, which is what you'd use to create a new item from an .oft file.

Hello,

I have Outlook 2003. I have a Message form named Equipment.oft and an
Appointment form named Alarm.oft.

I need to create a button on my Message form which will take me to the
Appointment form. Can anyone help me with the code on this.

Thanks in advance!
