Is this a form for internal use? Published to the Organizational Forms library? If not, it's not going to work in the most recent versions of Outlook.

Hi Sue, yes it is for internal use and I have posted it to the organisaional
library.l I have changed my list to a combo box and it seems to be working ok
but after I have published it and I send the form to myself none of the form
data is viewable. Can you please tell me what Im doing wrong. Im using
Outlook 2003.
Many thanks

Did you:

1) Leave the "send form definition with item" box unchecked when you published the form?

2) Bind all data entry controls to Outlook properties?

3) Click the Edit Read Page button to create a read layout to match the compose layout?
