Yes to the first bit and no to the second. Oh well, thanks for your
help - told you it would be something I'd done wrong!

So is there any way to enable it for forms with VBS in them?

Did you add the necessary registry value in the Office\11.0 hierarchy? Did you read this part of the article:

" This fix will only permit you to preview custom forms that do not have Visual Basic Scripting Edition (VBScript) code in them."

Hi all,

I'm having the problem whereby I want to allow the preview pane to show
the body text of a custom form I've written (none of my code alters the
message text) but outlook tells me I can't because it contains active
content. Fair enough, quick google reveals this kb article:

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/331788/

however it applies to office XP, and I'm on 2003. I've applied the
regkey fix the article describes but it doesn't seem to work so it
hasn't carried through to the latest version. Either that or I've done
it wrong!

Any ideas/pointers?

Thanks,

Kristan
