Getting fields from Contact info into custom form

[Chuck]

I have been creating a custom form in Outlook 2000. I use
a CommandButton to pick the customer from a Contacts
folder in Public Folders. While that works fine, I cannot
seem to get associated information (in this case, simply
the Company) onto my custom form.

Help?

Code snippet for your button?

Hoo-Hoo!

You think too highly of me for this one! I am only
employing the default CommandButton2 that opens the
Contacts folder to write to the Recipient...

They don't give me the code ;-)

Thanks,
Chuck

What kind of form is it? This will determine whether you can use Outlook object model methods or need to resort to CDO or Redemption (which might be likely anyway). You are prepared to write code, yes?

I am using a custom form built from the Post form in OL2k.
I am prepared to write code, having an
excellent 'jumpstart', but simply do not know if this is a
job for VBScript or VBA...and I keep getting caught in the
trap of trying the same things over and over and expecting
different results...
Thanks,
Chuck
