Default Custom VBA forms in Outlook--how to call w/macro?

Following the directions in Sue Mosher's excellent book, I have still
not succeeded in figuring out how to implement the VBA forms created in
the first couple of chapters.

The directions say to click the Office logo, Save As, then choose .OFT.
Well. . . in the VBA interface, I don't *SEE* the Office logo anywhere!
Have been pounding on this for hours.

I'm using a straight VBA form rather than modifying an Outlook form
because VBS stinks. It's crippled and won't do much of what I need!
Trying to get this VBA form to someplace where I can call it with a
macro in a toolbar. . .

Help, anyone?

You're confusing the directions for custom Outlook forms and custom VBA
forms. For a VBA form you need to save the entire VBA project. To do so
click File, Save VbaProject.OTM (the VBA file) in the VBA project. You can
also click the Save icon on the toolbar.
