Default Sending form to external email address?

Hi,
I would like further explanation on how to send forms to external email
addresses

Sue Mosher Kindly posted the following to a previous post I made in the
outlook - new users newsgroup - "To send to the external address, you will
need code in the Item_Send event of the form that creates a new message
(Application.CreateItem(0)) and populates its fields with the right data. "

I am a very basic user of outlook forms and have no idea where to enter the
code and what extra I need to add to it.

We are currently running Outlook 2000 sp3. and we need to send forms to
external email addresses that do not use Outlook.
I have set up the form and it sends fine to internal users that use Outlook.

If this can be described in a very basic manner, It would be much
appreciated. If this is too advanced for someone like myself who only knows
the very basics, please say and I'll mention to the user that it would be too
advanced for me to do.

Thank You

If what Sue said doesn't make a bit of sense to you, then it really is beyond
your capabilities.

But, beyond that, if the recipient does not use Outlook, then a custom Outlook
form will not open on your recipient's computer. What you really need is just a
plain text message with the data laid out using spaces. All you need to do is
create one of these messages, save it in the drafts folder, paste specific new
data into the proper place and then send it. You don't want to use any custom
form at all!
