In that case, ask your Exchange administrator if you can publish your custom form to the Organizational Forms library. If not, you may have to ask each user to publish it to their own Personal Forms library. Going forward, InfoPath is a much better solution for this kind of data gathering than custom Outlook message forms.

See http://www.outlookcode.com/d/sendform.htm for information on the common issues people encounter when working with custom message forms.

To learn about Outlook properties, check the object browser: Press ALt+F11 to open the VBA environment in Outlook, then press F2. Switch from All Libraries to Outlook to browse all Outlook objects and their properties, methods, and events. Select any object or member, then press F1 to see its Help topic.

Note that the "field" names shown in various parts of the UI don't always match the actual property names that you'll see in the object browser, but usually you should be able to puzzle out which is which. Feel free to come back here and ask if you're stumped.

Functions are also documented in VBA Help. An easy way to look one up is to type the name of the formula into a VBA window, highlight it, then press F1.

I guess the real question is what book or website describes the formulas and
fields for outlook forms?

thanks

So, could you answer the questions I posed to the original poster, please?

I'm having the same problem.. I want to create a form template to be filled
by employees who will send to their supervisor...

I have to have fields that are able to have alpha + numeric values (i.e.
qq-1234-t)

I createda template but only a few fields actually have values when I send
the email... One field is a numeric field only and the date fields all work...

Please tell us more about who will be using this form -- senders and recipients -- and what mail account(s) they use. Your Outlook version may also be relevant.

I have an Outlook template which I would like to be filled out through a form
also in outlook. The form will ask various information that will fill out
the entire email, including recipents and attachments and compile so that it
is ready to be sent.
