We recently upgraded to Windows XP. In our prior version of Windows, I was
able to type a new mail message in Outlook, then choose "Tools-Forms-Publish Form As" and give the form a name and save it to my Personal Forms Library. When I needed this particular message, I could go into Choose Form-Personal Forms Library and bring up this message. In Windows XP, the "Forms-Publish Form As" is no longer available under Tools in Outlook. My personal forms library is still there, and existing forms can still be used. However, I cannot make any changes to the existing forms, nor can I figure out how to save new forms. Any help will be appreciated. |

I'm using Outlook 2003 (11.8010.6568) SP2. After poking around a little more
I find that I can open a message I've received from someone else, then go to Tools-Forms and the "Publish Form As" shows up there. However, this command does not show up if you are in a new mail message, a reply to an existing message, or a forward to an existing message. I could not locate the "Publish Form As" command when going to View-Toolbars-Customize. "Sue Mosher [MVP-Outlook]" wrote: The version of Windows shouldn't matter.

That's normal behavior if you're using Word as your email editor. Turn off Word as the editor before starting a session where you want to publish message forms from existing messages.

Thanks! I tried turning off Word as my Email editor, and can now type a
message and save it as a personal form. This method does change the formatting of my auto-signature, but I can recreate that if needed.
