Saving Contacts With A Custom Designed Form...???
Using Outlook 2003...
I developed a custom form, now I am trying to use it by creating clients with it. When I fill out my for and try to save it I recieve the message: "A field on this form requires a value." I have assumed that my text and text box need to be called "File As" (Which I thought would save my contact that I create. Basically, my question is: how do I save contacts with a custom form? thanks!

Saving Contacts With A Custom Designed Form...???
The warning message indicates just what it says: that one or more fields have been set to require a value. This was probably done on the Validation tab of the Properties dialog for the control that displays the field. You'll need to look at each one to discover which has this problem.

Launch a new instance of the form (details depend on where you published it), fill in the data, then click Save or Save and Close. -- Sue Mosher, Outlook MVP Author of Microsoft Outlook 2007 Programming: Jumpstart for Power Users and Administrators http://www.outlookcode.com/article.aspx?id=54 "Steve" wrote in message ...

What text and what text box are you referring to?
-- I am refering to the one I have named "CONTACT" and its text box next to it... .........It is simply just text typed as "Contact" followed by a text box. Should I Be using a control? I am stumped, and this is probably not the answer you are looking for. Sorry for confusion...still would appreciate all and any help, thanks!

Sorry, but I really have no idea what you mean "text typed as 'Contact.'" A text box *is* a control.
Did you check any removed fields as I suggested? -- Sue Mosher, Outlook MVP Author of Microsoft Outlook 2007 Programming: Jumpstart for Power Users and Administrators http://www.outlookcode.com/article.aspx?id=54 "Steve" wrote in message ...
