Default User defined field incorrectly bound to form control

Hi,

My problem is a bit different other mising values discussed here.

I "inherited" an old realtive simple Outllok-based solution, used by
my company. There is a user defined form using user defined fields.
The form is based on a standard task form and is used in a public
folder accessible to several users. One of the user defined fields
loses values.

A new item is created or an existing one is edited. A text value is
entedered in the form text control bound with the user defined filed
"Competition". After saving the value is gone. Having analyzed the
item with OulookSpy I have determined that the value is being written
to a differen field: "StartDate" (standard Outlook field). Goiung
through items created by other users I have noticed that the value for
"Competition" is saved elsewhere, e.g. in: "urn:schemas:contacts:c".
Strangely enough, some users can see their values on the form, thouh
others cannot.

The user defined field is defined on the item level (this is my
assumtion based on http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290656). The text
control on the form is bound to the user defined filed "Competition".

I have tried re-binding the field to the form control and deleting the
control from the form and creating it from scratch again. It did not
help.

Do you have any suggestions?

Regards,
Marcin Pomin
