Microsoft Outlook 2003 - Forms
I have designed myself a form for a mail message that I will be using all
the time. I have published it and then realized I needed to add the attachment feature as this e-mail will always have attachments but it will not allow me to do so. What am I doing wrong? When you make a personal forms library form, can you not design it to allow you to add attachments to it? Candace Reed |

First of all, you should not be using a published custom form except for internal messages within an Exchange server environment. It will cause headaches for non-Outlook recipients.
Second, if you can't add attachments, it's probably because you removed the message body control. Add it back by dragging the Message field from the Field Chooser to your form. -- Sue Mosher, Outlook MVP Author of Configuring Microsoft Outlook 2003 http://www.turtleflock.com/olconfig/index.htm and Microsoft Outlook Programming - Jumpstart for Administrators, Power Users, and Developers http://www.outlookcode.com/jumpstart.aspx "Candace Reed" wrote in message ...

If I want to use a form (send a message) over and over again that says the
same thing, how do I go about it without cutting and pasting every time? That's what I thought the forms were for. "Sue Mosher [MVP-Outlook]" wrote in message ...

If you have a message you send often, turn off Word as your email editor (in versions of Outlook before 2007), create the message, then save it as an .oft file. You will be able to run that file whenever you need to send that message, without running into the problems of published custom forms.

And you can turn WordMail back on after you save the .oft file.

I said you should not use a ***published*** custom form. If all you need is a standard message to send frequently, turn off Word as your email editor, create the message, save it as an .oft file. You can then turn WordMail back on. When you want to send a message, just double-click the ..oft file.

Create the message you want and save it to the Drafts folder. Then when you want to send it, right-click and choose Forward. -- Brian Tillman |

I did what you said but now I cannot find the *.oft file that I saved. How
do I open that file? "Sue Mosher [MVP-Outlook]" wrote in message ... I said you should not use a ***published*** custom form.
