A password protected form only works when in design mode, it never affects
run mode. Passwords are deprecated for Outlook 2007, they never did much
good anyway. You can always get the password of a form from its
FormDescription.Password property, which is in clear text.
It's more likely that the ActiveX control isn't being installed or isn't
being registered or is not correctly initialized, or just isn't a control
that works well when embedded within a form. Analyze the error message, what
class strings are being set, or are used to call the ActiveX control, are
they correct?

Hi
I have an absence custom form in Outlook 2003. This form will be installed
by an add-In. It is visible at the appointment definition form. When i
open
the form i get an error message "Error displaying the fields of the
absence:
Invalid class string"
The form has as content an ActiveX control that set a few user properties
at
the appointment.
At the environment where I have the problem is a special behavior(Perhaps
it
has something to do with the problem). When I open the form Designer
Extras-Forms-Design a form select the "Lib for personal forms" and open
my
form, i get a popup that wants an password.
In my opinion it has something to do with the security. Does anyone has a
hint for me, to solve this problem?
