Last year (2006) I ran the transmit holiday from process successfully
to send and process company and religious holidays to all my clients.
This year, I'm trying to do so again, using the same process with new
dates. Problem is after creating the message sucessfully before
sending, when I open it, I get the error:

Can not find the specified object
Line No: 170

and the debugger comes up. In the debugger, the following line is
indentified:

Set m_chkHoliday = objPage.Controls("chkHolidayCat")

I'm lost as to the cause/solution. Looking for help and/or guidence

I meant, last year 2005, and now I'm trying to add 2006 dates.

I've also noted that the version I have is Ver. 7 from 1999. Does
anyone know if Sue updated this version to one more compatible with
Outlook2003?

The error suggests that either someone changed the name of the page where the chkHolidayCat control resides or the page instantiated as objPage no longer contains a control named chkHolidayCat.

Nothing has changed in recent versions to mandate an update to this form.

So, I tried the new form, publising it, then using it, same error.
the earlier comment, I haven't made any changes, now verified by the
use of the latest version.

The only thing I can think of would be to delete the two published
forms, and start over.

I had one of our VB programmers take a look at the error. Sue's
comments are correct, it looks like something has changed in the form.
Problem is, since I'm not a programmer, I haven't made any changes or
even looked at design forms. The mystery is that I used it in 2005, and
it worked, then didn't touch it until 2006 and now I get the error. I
wonder where I can get a copy of the original form so I can start over
and try from the begining.

The original I posted should still be downloadable from http://www.outlookcode.com/d/forms/holiday.htm

The obvious possible causes are that the form page was renamed or the checkbox removed.
