Hi,

Using a Czech Outlook version I published a form in the Organizational Form
Library on Exchange that has E-forms language set to English (USA). The user
publising the form had 'Owner' permissions and users who should read the form
had 'Read' permissions. Now, getting to the problem. When I used a Czech
version of Outlook the form did not seem to publish correctly. I could find
About information under Help, but I did not see the form itself. However,
when I tried using an English version of Outlook instead, everything worked
perfect.

So do I have to use an English version as the E-form language is English, or
is there any other reason why it was not possible to publish the form using
the Czech version?

Thank you

Steinar Larsen

For reasons that I've never heard explained, the Org Forms library is language specific. If the administrator creates a second library for Czech, your Czech version should be able to publish to it, but only users of Czech Outlook versions should see that version of the form. I don't know why they made it so complicated.

Thank you for the quick response!

This was helpful news, but I was able to read the form from a Czech Outlook
when I had successfully published the form from the English Outlook. But if I
understand this correctly, it seems that Form language and the Outlook
language must be the same language?

Thank you

By all appearances (e.g. the existence of multiple language versions of the Org Forms library), that's how it should work, but I've never seen any complete documentation on that aspect of the Organizational Forms Library and as you've found, Outlook forms almost never behave exactly as you expect them to.
