Default Populating CC field from dropdown box. Operation failed error

I would very much appreciate any code necessary for resolving the recipients
as you mention below. I have been looking through the books I have, and
figured that is probably what I need, but have not been able to work it out
for myself. I don't have any kind of programming background, so I pretty much
stumble through that.

We are on Outlook 2003. This will be an internal form, and will be published
to the Organizational Forms Library. Right now, I am just testing it myself.

Thanks for any help you can give,

Are you resolving the recipients with Check Names before you send?

What version of Outlook? Is this a form for internal use only?

In a custom Outlook message form, I am populating the CC field with a name
selected from a dropdown list by checking the "Set the initial value of this
field to:" checkbox on the Value properties tab of the CC field and inserting
the dropdown list name [Sponsor]. I have selected the radio button "Calculate
this formula automatically".

This works correctly. The selected name is inserted in the CC field once the
selection is made in the dropdown list. However, when the Send button is
clicked, I get an "Operation has failed" message. I have tried several
different ways of listing the names in the dropdown list, even using the SMTP
email address, but nothing works.

Can anyone help me with this problem?

Thanks in advance,
