Ah, they've rearranged the pages again. Here's the script link: http://www.windowsitpro.com/Files/04/23483/23483.zip

Moving the form, publishing the form, etc. will have no effect on the fields defined in the folder. You must add the fields to each folder if you want to see them in the folder views.

Sue, I think the code below is what I need as I have created a custom from
with User Defined Fields in the Folder which is what I need. However now I
need to move the custom from to another folder. When I publish the form to
the new folder the User Defined Fields are not there once I publish it to the
new folder location. I believe the code listed below would be the option to
take or is there a better way for moving the custom form from one folder to
another without losing the user-defined from fields in the folder, which I
need in order to do to the mail merge -catalog option. Regarding the
script indicated below I looked on the page but I can not seem to locate it.

Appreciate all you do very much

You must add the fields to the folder, either manually or by writing a script or some VBA code that (a) creates a new post in the folder and (b) adds fields to it. Such a script is available at http://www.exchangeadmin.com/article...ticleid=23483; you don't have to register to download the code.

Hi there Sue, thanks so much I will look at it. I am sure with my background
in doing this in Access is not helping it seems to be much different in
Outlook. At least I know I am just missing something.

I do have one more question for you - if I may. I created the form but
realized that I did all the customizatio "user-defined" fields at the form
level and not folder level. Now when I created a new sub-folder the items
that are not on the form are not available under the folder level.
Preventing me from adding them to mail-merge. Any way to rectify this
easily.

Hi Francine! It *is* difficult, at least until you understand the technique. Outlook doesn't do WYSIWYG printing of custom forms. I always use the Word template method described at http://www.outlookcode.com/d/customprint.htm along with other various solutions.

Okay all I think I am making this more difficult then it needs to be so I
thought instead of doing that I would ask our group here for help.


Created customized form with mutliple tabs and fields.

I am trying to find the best way to print a customized contact form. The
goal is to be able to print the contact form that is selected in a predined
tempate automatically by pushing a print command button. Typically they are
going to print a single contact at a a time.

I am trying to figure out the best method to do this such as create and make
it as seemless as possible to the end-user.
