using forms
Vista Home Premium 32 / Outlook 2007
I have created some forms that used to work. No more. On selecting a form, I get "The form required to view this message cannot be displayed. Contact the administrator. To my knowledge, I am the administrator. This is a stand-alone PC in my residence. If I go to Manage User Accounts, it shows only 2 accounts - LastName Administrator and Guest. I have googled my problem and found references to FRMCACHE.DAT which I am told to delete and restart Outlook. Did that. Opened Outlook and tried to open a form. Same error. And FRMCACHE.DAT was not rebuilt. Doing 'Find' shows no such file. FWIW, I can open the file in 'Design Form' and edit and publish. How do I get rid of the error? BONUS QUESTION: Is there a way to point Outlook to a NEW default folder that contains all my forms? |

What types of forms -- contact, message, etc.? Where are they published? Do
you have backup copies in the form of .oft files? What has changed on the machine between the time when they used to work and now? Does the problem occur with all forms or just some? FYI, there is a newsgroup specifically for Outlook forms issues "down the hall" at microsoft.public.outlook.program_forms or, via web interface, at http://www.microsoft.com/office/comm...rogram_f orms -- Sue Mosher, Outlook MVP Author of Microsoft Outlook 2007 Programming: Jumpstart for Power Users and Administrators http://www.outlookcode.com/article.aspx?id=54 "j lunis" wrote: Vista Home Premium 32 / Outlook 2007 I have created some forms that used to work.
