Default Outlook form-texbox field

Sounds like you have not told Outlook what properties to use to write and read the data that the user is entering. Do this on the Properties dialog of each control, at the top of the Value tab, adding new fields as needed.

"BD" wrote in message ...
I have created an outlook form with a tab that acts as a checklist to let the
reciever of the form know what has been sent using the form. The form
contains a few check boxes to indicate these are the documents that are sent
and a text box next to each where the user can type in the name of the file.
The problem I am having is that I can check the boxes and write stuff in the
text box, but when the form is sent the reciever doesnt see anything checked,
nor does he/she see anything written in the text box. I am guessing the boxes
arent enabled. Could someone please help me with what properties i need to
change to get this to work. Thanks a lot
