Eric, (and anyone else)

Well, after a user gets my email, they see the form already filled out, but
when they hit the reply button, the entire form is gone! When they hit the
forward button, the form is still there but critical information (ie date
sent, date received, sent from, sent to) is gone. So, I need the following
things after I send an email to a colleague...

It doesn't appear that a form received in an email can be selected via
edit/select all. This is one of my biggest problems. My step by step dilemna
is outlined below...

1. They receive the email with the form and data intact
2. They hit reply and all "time/date stamp" data is intact
3. They hit reply and the filled out form is still intact
4. They are able to "EDIT/SELECT ALL" and copy the "Time/Date Stamp" data
and all "form" data
5. They are able to paste all data above into the application of their choice.

Is there anyway that this can be done?

Thanks much in advance.

I don't quite understand - are you saying that you want a user to reply to
your custom form that they have received, and have that same custom form
inserted as an attachment in the new reply?

BTW, custom forms are never rendered in the Preview Pane because of security
considerations with code that could be running in the form during the Open
event.

Ok, this is similiar to a previous post of mine but the scope of my
question/dilemna is more focused now..here's the problem...

Does anyone know why this is the case?

I have tried everything I can think of. Oddly, when viewing in "Print
Preview" mode, all the labels and text are there but in plain text format
but
the appearence of the form is gone. I would like to be able to send a
completed form and have the recipient open it and reply or forward it with
the form info intact, in it's original form, in the message body.

SIDE NOTE: I also noticed that the form doesn't show up in the
Auto-Preview
section of an unopened email, is there a way to make it visible?

I have already tried to change options in the actions tab, changing from
"respect users default" to "include original message text" with no luck.
