I am having some problems with Outlook Task Forms and them not being
correctly displayed on other machines.

We have a task form which contains 6 tabs. However when this form is sent to
certain other machines only two of these tabs are displayed and it appears
to look like a default task form.

Initially I thought it was something to do with version numbers. The
original machine was on version 2002 (10.2627.2625). Other users on this
version and up to 2003 (11.6568.6568) SP2 could see the form correctly. I
was on version 2003 (11.8118.8107) SP2 and was unable to see all the tabs in
the form.

I recreated the form with all the tabs on my version and sent it to a few
other people. Again the form only displayed 2 tabs on the machines it was
sent to.

Anybody come across this before or have any ideas?

Regards,

Noel

Is the form published to the Organizational Forms library with the "send form definition with item" box on the (Properties) page unchecked? If not, it definitely won't work in OUtlook 2003 SP2.

Thanks for the reply.

I have looked at that option and it isn't ticked. Do you have any other
suggestions or should I repost under the other group?

Noel

We still need to know where you published the form.

Also, what does the Help | About This Form dialog tell you about the form, on both sorts of machines?

Use the other forum for your future forms questions. No need to start over on this topic.
