mHi Everyone,

When some of my users fill out a custom form created in Outlook and hit the
send button a little dialog box pops up with today's date and the time
8:00:00AM with an OK button. If I hit the button nothing happens. I did not
create the form. It was created by soeone who no longer works at my company
and I am not familiar with forms at all. It is an intermittent problem. I
tried leaving some fields blank on the form and sometimes it goes through and
sometimes it doesn't. Can someone point me in the right direction to getting
this resolved. It is happening on Office XP SP2 and also some Outlook 2003
users.

If you give me your email address I can send a screenshot.

Thanks very much! I am lost with forms and any help would be most
apprecated.

Look in the form's code for a MsgBox statement.

Hi Sue - thanks very much!! The form is password protected. I have a call
into the programmer to see if I can get in. I may need more help at that time.

Thanks for your help and hopefully I will get into this soon.

Hi Sue, thanks! I got the password. But I am still lost. I have the form open
but do not see any code. I went into design mode and just see a bunch of
fields. Of course I looked at the properties of all of them, but am stull
unclear on where this msgbox is coming from. I don;t believe he wrote any VBS
code but just used the form designer. How should I proceed. Thanks so much!!!

In design mode, there's a View Code button on the right side of the toolbar. If there is no code behind the form and no validation message on any of the controls' Validation tab (on each control's Properties dialog), then the form is not the cause of the message that users are seeing. Look elsewhere, like at VBA code or add-ins.

Hi Sue,

I just checked and there is no code behind the form. There are validation
messages, but no info box with date/time as I previously described. Just
messages saying the fields are required is they are. When you say look else
like VBA code what exactly do you mean, if there is no code behind the form.
IS there some other place to look for VBA code. I will definitely check the
add-ins.

thanks again.

VBA code lives in the VBA editor in Outlook, not in custom forms. Press Alt+F11 while viewing Outlook's main window.

You can also start Outlook in safe mode by using the /safe command-line switch; that will turn off VBA and all add-ins, allowing you to confirm or eliminate those possible sources of a stray message box.

Hi Sue - When I Press Alt+F11 while in design mode of the form, I get the VB
window but nothing opens up, so I assume it is safe to assume there is no
code, correct? I will contact one of the users with the issue and have her
run in safe mode. I will let you know what happens.

Thanks again! I really appreciate!!!

The Project Explorer at the left side of the VBA window will show you any code modules that are present.

Are any of the fields being validated using a validation formula? Or do they just have the box checked to tell the use if the field isn't given a value?
