Custom Form Send Permissions
 

I've created a custom Outlook form that is published to the
Organizational Forms Library. The process for which this form is used
is as follows:
1) From within Access, I have code that opens an instance of the
Outlook form, populates fields based on data in my database, and sends
the Outlook form to a recipient.
2) The recipient receives the Outlook form, populates a few text boxes,
then clicks a Submit button. The vbScript behind this button changes
the "To" field to my email address, then sends and closes the form.
3) When I receive the completed Outlook form in my inbox, I import the
form data into my Access database thru code.

For this process to work successfully, I need to add each recipient as
a Delegate to my inbox. Otherwise, the Outlook form is bounced back to
them when they click Submit, with the following message: "You do not
have permission to send to this recipient."

What am I missing here? There has to be a way of sending Outlook
forms, and having them returned, without delegating access to my inbox.

Any help/direction is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Boyd

The problem is that you're trying to resend a message that already has a From address of your own account. Two possible solutions:

1) Set the value of Item.SendOnBehalfOfName to the current user.

2) Forward the item instead of resending.

Thanks Sue, I appreciate the prompt reply.
With "Item.SendOnBehalfOfName" behind my submit button, I receive the
following error: "Object doesn't support this property or method".
Any ideas??

Thanks Sue and Dmitry!
Using "SentOnBehalfOfName" seems to work perfectly.

Custom Form Send Permissions
 

I'm running into another snag when using "SentOnBehalfOfName". My
custom form isn't responding to it consistently. My command button
has the following code within the Click event:
Set objPage = Item.GetInspector.ModifiedFormPages("Message")
Item.SentOnBehalfOfName = Item.UserProperties("To")
Item.To = "
Item.Send

I had a user who received an "undeliverable" message when clicking the
button, then tried clicking again, and the form sent without a
problem.
Is it possible that the value in the "To" field (which has resolved to
the users account name, not the email address) isn't being recognized
by the Exchange server? Is it better practice to use the actual
address, instead of the resolved name?

Any help is appreciated.
Thanks, Boyd

If you are using a name, you indeed can get error, even if the name come
from GAL due to ambiguity: e.g. if you specify "admin" and you have users
named "admin" and "administrator", you will get an ambiguous error.
Addresses are definitely better.

Thanks Dmitry. I changed the "SentOnBehalfOfName" to the user's email
address, instead of the outlook account name, but the user is still
receiving the returned "undeliverable" message.

Does anyone have an example using "SentOnBehalfOfName" that works for
them? I really want to avoid adding every possible user as a delegate
to my Inbox.

Thanks,
Boyd
