Two methods:

1) Use CommandBars techniques to execute the Help | About This Form command.

2) Put code in the Item_Open event handler to read that information from the Item.FormDescription properties and display it wherever you like.

Dear Newsgroup.

Is there a way to display the version and form number (configured on the
properties tab in form design view) on the form when it's opened?
(Outlook 2003 SP2)
