Hi Stephen,
you must save this form as an "oft" file. This file you can send by email and then you can publish / use thsi form on another computer. Have a look n this site: "Saving and Publishing Outlook Forms" http://www.outlookcode.com/article.aspx?id=34 Maybe it helps. -- Oliver Vukovics Share your Outlook PST files without Exchange: Public ShareFolder Extended reminder function for Outlook / Exchange: Public Reminder Addin http://www.publicshareware.com "Stephen" schrieb im Newsbeitrag ...

Thanks Oliver.
I saved it as "Untitled.oft" then emailed it to work, then saved it to the desktop. Double-clicking it opened it as the standard form, not my new "well-designed" (ha-ha-ha!) form. Do I need to publish it first, and if so, what's the sub-directory called where User-Defined forms are usually stored - please?

Dear Stephen,
Double-clicking it opened it as the standard form, This is normally not correct. Normally you must see the new form. Please delete your "formcache" and try it again. "How the Outlook forms cache works" http://www.outlookcode.com/article.aspx?id=64 After you see your corect form, you must publish the form: How to determine where to publish a custom Outlook form http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290802/en-us Fro existing contacts you will need a tool that can change the "message class" of the existing forms. We developed a freeware tool which change the message class: DocMessageClass: http://www.publicshareware.com/publi...-utilities.php Maybe it helps. -- Oliver Vukovics Share your Outlook PST files without Exchange: Public ShareFolder Extended reminder function for Outlook / Exchange: Public Reminder Addin http://www.publicshareware.com "Stephen" schrieb im Newsbeitrag ...
